The Sultan's palace
Murzuq was a couple of centuries ago the capital of a fairly extensive sultanate,
The sultan's palace is still standing, and while many of the most impressive artefacts are by long gone, entering is both possible and most rewarding. A mosque nearby is very interesting as well, old with a minaret that appears to be bending after being melted by the sun. This one too, can be entered.
