From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Location of Timia in Niger

Timia is a town in northern Niger situated at an oasis in the Aïr Mountains. Vistors come to the Tuareg town to see a seasonal waterfall, a former French fort and the nearby ruined town of Assodé.

Timia lies south of Iferouane and north of Agadez. The main town lies around 3km from a stone Guelta oasis, which holds water year round. It is also known for its fruit trees, an unusual sight in the Saharan regions of northern Niger.
