Buzema
Buzaymah (also Bzema, Buzema ) is an oasis placed in the Libyan Desert in the Al Kufrah District of Libya, about 150 Km NW of Kufra. [1] It has a surface of 230 Km2, and stretches with a semicircular shape around a 18 Km long salt lake. [1] Buzaymah lies to the bottom of a mountain range where rests of Tebu fortification system are still visible. [1] The oasis trees (palm, fig, tamarisk, acacia) bear a lot of fruits due to the abundance of fresh water. [1] On the NW shore of the lake lies a village. [1]
