An archetypal example of remoteness, Timbuktu was and is the de facto European idea of nowhere. Western culture has largely adopted this impression, and it with little beyond general abstraction that defines this city in the collective conscious. Bordering the Sahara desert, and within a dozen miles of the Niger river, Timbuktu is a wonderful collection of historical influences, Berber traders, and a flowering specimen of both Renaissance and contemporary Islamic culture.  RyanAir doesn't fly here, but keep an eye out for some cheap flights.
