Burning sands, snowy peaks, palm groves and verdant oases,
lofty ksours, walled villages and sumptuous kasbahs the idyllic wonder of
a town from another age. Ouarzazate in the midst of the desert in the south of the kingdom of Morocco, , stands at the crossroads between the Drâa valley-which reaches as far as Agadir-the Dadès which cuts through the High Atlas-and the Ziz, which feeds Tafilalet's vast stretches of palm grove before vanishing into the sands of Taouz. Ouarzazate is the film capital of Morocco, with everything from Lawrence of Arabia to The Mountains of the Moon and Star Wars being filmed there. The studio outside town is an impressive sight, and open to the public for tours. |
