    Ait Ben Haddou

    One of the best places to visit is the Kasbah of Ait Ben Haddou, which is considered a historical legacy of commercial caravans that moved from South Africa to Moroccan cities and the nature of Amazigh life at that time. Ben Haddou is considered one of the historic monuments incarnated in coherent kasbahs and Alia is what led UNESCO to classify it as a world historic monument, making it an artistic destination par excellence through the representation of an international group. filming takes place there, not to mention the wall surrounding the Kasbah following the events of the conflicts that occurred at that time. It also includes a castle at the top in addition to the nearby town Ouarzazat.
