Do you recommend traveling to Timbuktu and why?
That would be great. Can you tell me more about Timbuktu's history?
Timbuktu was an important center of Islamic scholarship and trade in West Africa during the 15th and 16th centuries. It was also a major center for the trans-Saharan slave trade. Today, Timbuktu is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a popular destination for tourism.
