Travel The World Vol. 4 - Namibia
"The world is a book and those who do not travel read only a page."

The world offers so many breathtaking locations and places to see and not everyone is able to visit them in person. With this new feature series I invite you on a journey to discover and enjoy the beauty our planet offers. Let's travel the world!
Namibian Deserts, Namibia, Africa
Namibia, with its wide deserts and savannahs, offers several amazing places worth a visit. The Sossusvlei area - remnants of the Tsauchab river that is silting up about 50km from the Atlantic coast - is one of the dryest and oldest deserts of our planet.

I'm still confused about the area's names.
When you leave Sesriem gate, you pass by the White Witberg Mountain on the road to Sossusvlei.
Dead Vlei is the last dune the road leads to, right?
The area is the Naukluft Park. And Sossusvlei is the highest dune there, right?

yes, i think that's right so far.
the "dead vlei" is at the end of the road (km 69 or something like this). here you can slip into some jeeps, which bring you to to "dead vlei".... it's a little bit hidden in the dunes.
