Ouarzazate & Aït Benhaddou 

Thirty kilometres west of Ouarzazate, on the old caravan route that once connected the Saharan trading centres to Marrakesh, Aït Benhaddou is a ksar — a fortified village built from mud brick and earth — that is among the finest examples of pre- Saharan vernacular architecture in existence. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, which it deserves to be, and it has also been the backdrop for more films and television productions than any single location in Africa.
