The aim of this paper is to share a research result. When writing a thesis about the Tuaregs of the Algerian Sahara and the Navajo of the American Sahara, a geographical remarkable commonness imposed itself as an eminent visionary idea. Five photos of Monument Valley were shown to thirty Algerian people. They were asked to name the places which the photos represented. The result of the survey was quite interesting since they all asserted they were photos of the Hoggar region in the Algerian Sahara. This result is an essence for dealing with similar touristic places that exist in the world. Documentary film makers and fashion designers can contribute in emancipating this new trend of tourism. They can take people, within a short period of time, to both places.
