THZ is the airport code for Tahoua, a city in the west-central part of Niger, in West Africa, in the Sahel zone between the Sahara desert and the greener south of the country. Tahoua is one of the larger towns of Niger, a regional capital and a busy market centre for the surrounding farming and pastoral region, historically an important stop on the trans-Saharan trade routes, with a mix of Hausa, Tuareg, Fulani and other peoples. It lies in a semi-arid landscape of the Sahel, of millet fields, herds and open country. Because Niger has faced security challenges and political instability in recent years, travelers should check their government's current advice, which may warn against travel. Tahoua is reached by road from the capital, Niamey, and other towns, and by its airport. The climate is hot and semi-arid, with a short rainy season and a long dry season.
