Jadu

The modern hilltop town of Jadu is a mixed Berber-Arab settlement overlooking the hilly limestone massif Jabel Nafusah in Western Libya. The height of the chain ranges from 470 to 1000 meters. The town is build on the site of an older town, and has a few very old buildings remaining. Jado offers a fascinating drive up its southern entrance, spiralling up the mountain like a giant serpent, awesome network of valleys and mountain cliffs and slopes, and numerous caves and olive groves. Upon reaching the top, the plains will instantly transcend with peaceful solitude.

Ain az Zarqa
Places of interest include the natural spring off Ain az Zarqa. This small, crystal-clear pool fringed by palm trees is stunningly located at the bottom of cliffs that surround it on three sides. There are also waterfalls, streams, farms, troglodyte dwellings, cliff-top houses, and magical groves. The local people of Jado have established a private museum, housing several artifacts of ethnographic nature. Al-Barouni Museum is considered among the best museums in the region, embodies the Berber heritage and architecture of the Western Mountain. The visitor will be rewarded by models of traditional crafts and industries as well as ancient archaeological stone artifacts, including a model of a traditional oil mill, called andour in Tamazight.
