Faya Laro is a major city in the northern part of the African country of Chad, located in the Ennedi Province, on the southern edge of the Sahara Desert, and is a key transportation and trade hub on Chad's borders with Libya and Niger. As Chad's northernmost major settlement, the city is strategically located and has historically served as a transit point for caravans connecting North Africa with the sub-Saharan region. The climate is extremely arid and tropical desert with large temperature differences between day and night. The local economy is based on nomadic pastoralism (camels, goats) and cross-border trade, with the development of mineral resources (e.g., uranium) also emerging. Although small, the city is an important gateway for exploring the natural and human landscapes of northern Chad because of its unique geographic location and desert flavor.
