Answer:

Southwest.

Step-by-step explanation:

Timbuktu is a historic city in Mali, located almost in the center of the country, which is part of the northwestern region of the African continent.

It has a population of about 35,000 inhabitants and is located in the Sahara Desert just north of the Niger River, with average annual temperatures of between 30 and 32 degrees Celsius.

Given its location, scrolling down the map and to the left would imply moving to the southwest, being able to get through this route, for example, to the capital of Mali -Bamako-, or to Guinea or Sierra Leone.
