Ancient iconic village of Morocco

The Ksar of Ait-Ben-Haddou is a stunning, UNESCO-listed ancient fortified village located along the former caravan route between the Sahara and Marrakech. Made of clay and mud brick, the ksar features towering kasbahs and houses clustered within defensive walls, reflecting traditional Berber architecture. Its distinct red-earth structures blend harmoniously with the desert landscape, and the site is a prime example of southern Moroccan earthen architecture. Famous as a backdrop for many films, Ait-Ben-Haddou offers visitors a glimpse into Morocco’s history, with its maze-like alleys, terraced homes, and panoramic views of the surrounding valleys and mountains.#travel #culture #history #holiday #morocco
