			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Casablanca is the largest port of the Maghreb basin. The city was built by  the French, and it is even bigger than Marseille. The visit on Casablanca  includes Habous district, central market, Anfa residential area, Hassan II  mosque, Royal palace and Mohammed V Square.</p>
<p>Hassan II mosque:<br />
The Hassan II mosque is the only almighty worship centre  with incarnation message the brethren. The passion and gratitude of the mosque  gives mankind the desire to have their call heard.<br />
Traditionally, Hassan II  is part of the religious monuments. The mosque is designed by architectural art  to recall the history and renew its heights of fame. The first monument mosque  was built around 688 and 692 in the era of Omeyyade, ordered by Absal-malik, for  its construction on the Dome of the rock along one of the most common Islamic  monuments in Masjid al Agsa.</p>
<p>The mosque creates an impact of the true Islam architectural achievement and  between 705 and 710, the Madina grand mosque was reconstructed while the grand  mosque in Damascus was founded between 706 and 715, being attributed to Al-walid  his son. The transverse naves of the Damascus grand mosque are separated by  parallel lines to the Gibia wall of two-level arches and pass in their centre by  a central nave is the Muslim west mosque prototype. Medinian pattern is  characterized by the layout, which will even affect the Qurawsyyine mosque of  Fez because of its wide spreading action.</p>
<p>The oldest mosque in Maghreb is the Kairovan grand mosque in the Muslim west.  The mosque was demolished and then reconstructed towards the end of VIIth  Century.<br />
The Kairovan mosque was founded by Ogba Ben Nafi and it was later  enlarged by the Second half of the VIIIth Century by Caliph Hicham before moving  through the last IXth Century. It was then refurbished by Ziyadat Allah.</p>
<p>Perpendicular to the Gibla wall, there are Naves that lay out called  Basilical which are already adopted by Al Agsa mosque and will be perpetuated in  the mosques of Spain, Maghreb and Friqiya.</p>
<p>The Grand mosque of Cordoba is the second monument mosque in Muslim west. The  Spain’s dream mosque founded by Abdal Rahman I in 785-786, however, it was  reconstructed by the Abdal-Rahman II in 833 by Hakam by 961 and the mosque was  finally refurbished by Al-mansour in 987.</p>
<p>The building’s founder was determined to reproduce Andalusia. The Omeyyad  Caliphate Slender wanted to reconstruct the building near Damascus grand mosque  pattern. The monument mosques of all Arab-Andalusian is a prototype of more than  the Kairovan mosque especially those in Toledo and Savagossa.</p>
<p>Nevertheless, this provides art designs of all centuries found in Morocco.  This was in 859 in the 9th Century when two mosques were constructed, which  include Andalous and Qarawiyyine mosque.<br />
Qarawiyyine grand monument mosque  was affected by several extensions especially during 956 and 1335 during the  reign of Almoravids. While its transverse lay out with Almoravid shrines layouts  in Maghreb especially the grand mosque of Algiers (1096) and Themcen (1136).</p>
<p>The birth of Moroccan art started with the construction of the Fassi shrines  influenced by Eastern and Andalusian people.<br />
The Moroccan crafts men got  inspired with Andalusia and the Eastern, which managed to drive away from the  local people traditions.</p>
<p>The external factors contributed much to the development of Morocco  architecture and art.<br />
The ancient heritage even under the reign of Mernid  dynasty, will never fail because of the traditional culture faithfulness.</p>
<p>The greatest builders of the shrines in West Muslim were Abdel-Moumen and his  sons Yacoub Almansaour in the Almohad sovereigns. With sovereignty and  austerity, their works were none the less stamped, which could match their  system ideas. Likewise, the mosques in Marakesh Rabat Hassan mosque, mosques of  Tinmel Gerald and of Seville and Taza mosque built by Yacoub as far back as  1171, shows the real architectural design and greatness expressed in various  forms.<br />
This has created a steady volume of sense and a great line mastery  they testify being characterised by big decorum that benefits the austerity made  of Almohad dynasty. Hence the source of inspiration for the achieved work done  is got from the ornamental buildings raised.</p>
<p>Many monument works were experienced after the fall of Almohad Dynasty, like  mosques in Fez, Merinid, Madrassas Sale and Ougda as well as Marrakesh’s  Saadion<br />
Mawsoleums and Meknes alaoulte mosques and palaces in Fez.</p>
<p>Audacious projects profusion that enabled recovery was witnessed in the reign  of King Hassan II, which became a classical consecrate work and not for getting  the work of the Great builders of Omeyyads such as Abd Almohad L in Andalusia  and Al Walid in the East as well as Almohad Yacoub, Al-monsour and Ottoman Ahmed  I founder of the blue mosque.</p>
<p>The Hassan II mosque accommodates large groups of people, which calls for  external influences since it reflects a new kind of proclivity in harmony  considered to be nostalgia and at the same time giving the true shelter for the  believers while remaining faithful to the traditional inspirations.</p>
<p>The mosque reflects the personality of his majesty the King, who teaches  Islam and attached to personal spirits of civilisation. Thus Hassan II mosque is  the best when it comes to traditional mosques in Morocco.</p>
<p>In the 20th Century, the Damascus Grand mosque is valid as quoted by  Al-Idrissi. There is no mosque concreatecaly constructed, well decorated with  Gold enamelled tiles or polished marbles, beautiful.<br />
Surely, arched or  marvellously down than the Grand mosque in Damascus.</p>
<p>The Hassnaian art and architecture began with refurbishing of Mohammed V  Mausoleum and went on to further refurbishing of the royal palaces in Nador and  Agadir as well as in Rabat found in Casablanca.</p>
<p>Cherished by Merinids, the Almoravid is made up of wood engrave assembled  foiled arches. The Almoravid was inspired by the Merinids, with the harmoniously  with traditional chromes, ornamentations and inscriptions.</p>
<p>Hassan II mosque is therefore one of the most modernised mosques in the  world, with art and architecture designs attracting most of the explorers from  Europe and Arab-Asia.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Fes Morocco, Fes City<br />
This is a sewel Holy City of the Spanish Arab Civilisation. It is not easy for Fez to show up its secrets, to show its shadow and secretine becomes a little too late to be discovered. The ancient city is only appreciated for its medrsa architecture because of its merchants and artisans. The visitors are attracted by the fragrances, colors and the captivating sounds of the city. The1st sanctuary of human research is in the city of Moulay Idriss.</p>
<p>Akaraoulyne University has been one of the intellectual and religious centre for almost eleven years, whose influence has spread all over the boundaries of the kingdom.</p>
<p>The aul times was traced by Idriss system. They presented to him Fas (gold and silver) in 789. This is where the name Fez came from.<br />
The city is bordered by hills and Atlas Mountains in the South and lies far in the Saiss plains.</p>
<p>Fez has become the kingdom’s spiritual capital, characterized by artisans, cultural traditions and a number of religions.<br />
The sculpted cedar door is the only way through to reach the Andalusia mosque, which was governed by successive leaders as far back as the 9th Century, with green falences decorations, the imposing minaret crowns, the RSIF mosque. The former student’s hostel around Karaoulyne mosque in the Medersas gives a clear reason for the existance of the town as well as acting as a workshop centre in Kissaria, which sales local goods like silk, slipper, brocade work and fabric, maize, cotton among others.</p>
<p>El Attarine craftsmen offer the best craft work for the visitors to have a look at and thereafter pay for some. Each district has its own carpets, blue enamelled pottery, multitude of colours and wrought iron and The Jamal Palace refurbished by 1930 into a luxury hotel being one of the most quality buildings in Morocco.</p>
<p>DAR BATHA MUSEUM:<br />
This museum was founded in the 19th century, which is favourably competing with those from Fez. The houses in the museum are decorated with Fez traditional art such as wrought iron, sculptured wood, decoration materials, carpets, coins, seweter and embroidery. However, the most beautiful are made by the craftsmen from Fez and museum counter piece is found in the pottery room.</p>
<p>The famous Fez blue was invented by use of cobalt in the 10th Century and behind being highlighted in colour and with white enamel. The astrolabes which are instruments made by the Arabs, should not be missed by the visitors, as well as the mystery of the beauty of the Jewel and the talisman.</p>
<p>BORS-NORD MUSEUM:<br />
This is a military museum close to the rampant remains found in the 16th Century. It became a military museum when weapons were transformed into it. This has come to be called so due to donations for the visitors. They have a variety of adventure both in weapons and art designs.</p>
<p>For everything in the museum is a weapon related tool, covering from parts of Europe, India and Asia.<br />
However, some are made in Morocco, such as stones and rifles which are big in size, as well as a 12-ton weighing canon used in the fighting of the 3 Kings, which is 5 meters long.</p>
<p>Location:<br />
Borz-Nord museum Fez:</p>
<p>ERFOUD:<br />
The region of Erfoud was considered in place after the French occupation of Morocco, in order to take control over the Bedouins of the region. The place got its name after the French military settlement was set up in this region.</p>
<p>For people visiting the Ziz valley, Erfoud is the major street base they should use. However, Erfoud is not a tourist destination itself, but travellers like to move through this city.</p>
<p>Rissani:<br />
This is a traditional site with a number of people and a lot of heat and looks like the Egypt Nile valleys, because there are small canals that pass through these villages with the towns being one of the most typical villages in Morocco.</p>
<p>One of the Golden events is the sunrise during the morning hours. From the golden clouds, which view a Sahara background, visitors can then go back fro breakfast. However, the Touargees people go on for adventure in the ancient Rissani city. This can be by use of 4 x 4 wheel vehicles.</p>
<p>Merzouga:<br />
Morocco’s only lakes are found near dams. However, the Dayet Sriji lake in the Sahara is a big wonder and when you travel South, then you will find various lakes like the salty lake as well as true and false lakes, which attract a number of flamingos, best for viewing.</p>
<p>The camels travel through the oasis trees and matters as long as you move on the nature and the temperatures since the water streams of the canals will go on weakening.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong></strong>If you are making  arrangements to have a visit to Morocco, we would strongly advise that you try  and time your stay during the early months of summer. During this time you will  be assured of warm days and all the cool nights and most likely no rain at all  during this time.</p>
<p>For the weather, you just need to Read below to verify the kind of climate  that you will expect during your visit to Morocco. The Moroccan climate varies  very much depending in which part of the country you are.<br />
<!--     if (!document.phpAds_used) document.phpAds_used = ',';     phpAds_random = new String (Math.random()); phpAds_random = phpAds_random.substring(2,11);       document.write ("<" + "script language='JavaScript' type='text/javascript' src='");     document.write ("http://revenue.virtualcountries.com/adjs.php?n=" + phpAds_random);     document.write ("&amp;what=zone:49");     document.write ("&amp;exclude=" + document.phpAds_used);     if (document.referrer)        document.write ("&amp;referer=" + escape(document.referrer));     document.write ("'><" + "/script>&#8220;);  //&#8211;><br />
Normally the climate in Morocco remains fairly dry for the  most time of the year; expect just little rain between the months of November  and March.</p>
<p>The temperature is however incredibly high in the southern  and also in the south eastern areas of the desert. Conversely,    the  temperature drops significantly in the elevated areas of the mountainous to the  extent of even the place getting to freezing point at night.</p>
<p>It will always be better to have a visit to the south and the desert courses  just outside midsummer because this is when the most of the day is very hot for  casual exploration, more so when you are only depending on public  transport.</p>
<p>July and August happen to be, the hottest months and  everything can be just wonderful on the coast, while in the mountains there are  never set rules. Here below we give you the average temperatures in  Morocco.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is one of the most attractive towns in the whole of Morocco on the coastline. It is concentrated with blue shuttered houses, art galleries, white washed wood workshops, colourful boats and surrounded by a red wall. The town font is covered by rocky islands with sandy beaches and dunes. The beaches are quite clean and you can walk there for few minutes.<br />
A number of people have cool temperature since all sites a round are very hot.<br />
The good wind for surfing attracts the tourists and has become well known for wind suiters world wide.<br />
IN the 18th Century, it is the Portuguese who found the city of Essaouira when it was called Mogador. At that time being a home to fort beginnings, its in 1760s when the walls were constructed and the French Theodore cornut architecture designed it by following the orders of Sultan Sidi Mohammed Ben Abdellah.</p>
<p>Theory opened to the European trade was Mogador by the 19th Century, outside Tangier, hence attracting the British merchants who settled in Kasbah, followed by a Jewish community.<br />
Due to France’s protection of Casablanca, the city was left behind due to the settlement of Jewish in early 20th Century. However, due to fishing and tourism that came up in the city, the city developed again.</p>
<p>Agadir royal golf club:<br />
The Scottish Golf Club started in 1755 since it was named after the Scottish called Wilson, who dug a hole in one the fields and later on another person named Colonel Kamili did the same by digging 9 holes near the geaniums.</p>
<p>The Agadir Royal Club is designed by eucalyptus minosa and pines covering 3600m on a 36 course.<br />
The course is very good and delightful but you should be aware of the trees and the under growth.<br />
The course is covered by palm trees that go up to the angles and broad greens. The number 3 hole is some how challenging. Its covered by 469 metres and 5 for having particular skills to over come water problems.<br />
A panoramic club house is made available for players to meet after the game.<br />
The golf course is surrounded by bunkers ontop of the hill. The blue course eucalyptus being ideal for getting your hand through.</p>
<p>Dunes Golf Club:<br />
This needs one to be fit, part with 3 hole numbers. This yellow course needs one to be attentive since its covered by a lake with a deep depression, a bunker and an embankment on its green part.<br />
Here you will be advised to use al your strokes, all your clubs red course, for the Tamarisk.<br />
Also present include small eucalyptus wood, two lakes and made of part 5 that goes up before it sleeps down the course.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Souks and markets are the major features of Moroccan life, and they are among  the country’s best attractions. These are found everywhere and each town has got  its own special souks. For the rather big cities like Marrakesh, Fez and the  rest of the big cities have tangle of individual souks and each fills a street  or square and is devoted to a given trade and in the countryside there are  hundreds of weekly souks, and these take place on a different day in each  village of the region.</p>
<p><strong> Crafts</strong><br />
Craft, art and  traditions are still very vigorous in Morocco, and even the goods that are  bulk-produced for the tourists are surprisingly expensive.  Finding pieces of  real quality is however not very easy. Some crafts have become blunted by all  these centuries of repetition while others have been corrupted by modern  techniques and the chemical dyes. For those planning to buy something, it’s  always better to get as close to the source of the goods as one can. One of the  ways that you can get a good idea of the original standards would be by visiting  one of the various established art museums that are spread all around the  country. There are pretty good art and craft museums in all the main cities in  Morocco.</p>
<p><strong>Carpets</strong><br />
Moroccan carpets are not as cheap as  you may imagine, you may have to pay thousands of dollars for the better-quality  Arab designs in Fez or Rabat. It is on the other hand much possible to find rugs  and kellims which are woven rather than knotted, at better  costs.</p>
<p><strong>Pottery</strong><br />
Pottery in Morocco is very vibrant if  fairly crudely made on the whole, however the blue-and-white designs of Fez and  the multicoloured element of the Chefchaouen are extremely  eye-catching.</p>
<p><strong>Food</strong><br />
Be sure of a large diversity of  food products in Morocco that you will not get elsewhere very easily and which  will make an easy and inexpensive gift or souvenir. Locally produced olive oil  is rather very simple to come across; it is unique with a very strong flavour.  Olives also appear in several varieties, and there are a number of shops that  specialize only in the selling of olives.<br />
<strong>Bargaining</strong><br />
This  is entirely a natural thing in Morocco; it is always advisable not to pay  attention to the initial prices. The first price is always just a device to test  the limits of a particular transaction. You may always visit a fixed price store  or supermarket to determine the actual prices for the crafts. Just set your mind  on how much you are willing to offer and then you may go back to the open  markets to negotiate the prices of the products. Always take your time when  bargaining and you may get a better deal than some other tourist with less  patience or experience. Therefore always be patient and stick to what you feel  is a fair price for you.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Rabat city is a sky blue close to the sea, surrounded by ochre coloured  ramports. The city is characterized by towers that reach up to the sky and ever  clears, which makes it hirely the capital city.</p>
<p>As the capital city, Rabat had great history as far back as the 12th Century.  Yacoub el Mansour chose it to be the splendour symbol since he was the  successful conqueror of the Almohades.<br />
Rabat had already made history, then  the Marinadeads (XIIIth and 14th Century) built the Roman ancient ruins and made  Chellah nectropolis as its site as a way of honouring the city.</p>
<p>With the Hassan Tower, Yacoub el Mansour was honoured because the mosque  dominated one of the greatest mosques in the world and King Mohammed V Mausoleum  architect, of the 1956 Independence of Morocco as well as seat of the government  residence of the King and Royal palace imposing. Thus Rabat city still honours  those who made it what it is.</p>
<p>KASBATH OF THE OUDAYA:<br />
This is made of orcental slipper stalls scent of  leather fragrant poufs in form of a carpet auction made of Oudaya Kasbin stones.</p>
<p>Than imagining their existance, nothing else is more pleasant, close and  Moorish coffee, Moroccan cake with mint tea over looking Bou Re Greg riverboats  down Sale city, all found in Andalous cersains of XII Century.</p>
<p>CHELLAH NERCOPOLIS:<br />
On the ancient city of Sale, we find the Necro polish  located 2m away from the main center. Its surrounded by vegetation as long as  you move from door to door. Here you will find turtles and fish distinguished by  stone basin and tombs.<br />
According to legend, this place was occupied by  Starks of golden fish, multicoloured décor being maintained by minaret.</p>
<p>KING MOHAMMED V MAUSOLEUM:<br />
This is the most classic and traditional  decorated with Moroccan art such as Cebanon Cedar, marble and mahogany gilt  cupola, hence being more sophisticated and luxurious.</p>
<p>OUDAYA’S MUSEUM (RABAT):<br />
The ancient city was built in the 17th Century by  Moulay Ismail as his residence, situated in Opulent lodge.<br />
The museum is  characterized by flowerbeds, exuberant vegetation which makes its paths easy to  move through, as well as ramparts and fountains in the gardens.</p>
<p>The museum has a number of rooms consisting of cool marble, as well as gold  colour jivans around the rooms, and when you come close to the end of the room  producing a Moroccan accent interior, you will be able to see a great spectacle  silk and cushions in the brocade.</p>
<p>Attention particularly goes to carpet collection, which consist of 150,000  stitches per square meter. The craftsmen have further developed the carpets  using simple techniques. The barbers (rural carpets) show the tri composition of  colour and ornamentation, which demonstrates the architectural art.</p>
<p>NATURAL SCIENCE MUSEUM:<br />
This was discovered by 1079 in the Azilal region,  where it lived for over 150 million years ago.<br />
This museum consisted of  15-meter harmless herbivore, which makes one to imagine how it looked like when  it was on earth since the skeletons were reconstructed.<br />
On display, this  museum has also some archaeological research on display.</p>
<p>ARCHEOLOGICAL MUSEUM:<br />
This museum hosted a number of National Museum  collections since 1986. It was built in 1932 and it was later enlarged to  display the archaeological research findings.</p>
<p>This museum probably brings the true ancient remains as far back in the  middle Palaeolithic period (Neanderthals) up to the Neolithic period (4000BC),  hence providing a variety of different sizes of human beings up to the present  size.</p>
<p>With the excavation of XIIIth and IXth Century sites, there is rapid research  and findings.<br />
With clear vision of the tools they left behind with us, it  gives us the past experience of their activities such as hunting,, herdsmen,  bakers, potters and surgeons.</p>
<p>Some of the surviving finest pieces from those periods show the civilisation  of the Roman and Pre-Roman culture. There is a collection of Hellenistic style  bronzes, Volubilis dog and a drunken donkey, and heads of young Berbers</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>TANGIER CITY:<br />
This is one of the ancient cities where Cartheginians and Phoenicians established their trade routs. The Visigoths and vandals invaded the Arabs who had occupied the city after it was made to be controlled by the Portuguese before the Spanish in the early 20th Century.</p>
<p>The American, whites and Europeans were more interested in the city since it was made a tax-free International city.<br />
The city beach makes a long curve beside the white houses and most tourists come to enjoy their holidays here. The city beach serves all Moroccan families for 2 months holiday and for visitors its 1 day.<br />
Among the evening activities include seeing each other, moving up and down without a common plan since it’s a tourist city. In West of Tangler, there are several Atlantic beaches. The beaches are surrounded by mountains with an attractive environment, yet with clear and wide beach providing all necessary facilities.<br />
The streets of Tangler has narrow streets a concentration of small houses with most people living in this area.<br />
The more popular is the gate of great mosque in Medina, which heads directly to the beach, which is also the easiest route to move through most parts of Tangler and you will find yourself in the towns of Petit Socco.<br />
The Medina is the biggest of all commercial areas around so these act as tourist attraction and becomes difficult to find, where real handcraft is don, where others being devoted to living and there are a variety of painted doors decorated gates rose bushes and plenty of beautiful houses around.</p>
<p>The worst part of Medina is Petit Socco covering 100 square meters, where there is prostitution, theft, drug dealings and human trafficking. So you should be a ware of these activities when you are trying.</p>
<p>Morocco was identified as an independent country in 1777, an American embassy was set up in Tangler, which now serves as a museum for free entry. However, you should get a friend to assist you to move a round the area.<br />
Also available are the American artists in the place. You will sometimes be forced to pass in several reception rooms.<br />
Another word to mean the market by the Arabs is Socco, so this word has even been used and still exists in Morocco. We find the Grand Socco in North East of Medina. However, its not a market place now since it acts as a transformation center. For taxis and meeting place, it also acts as a modern city’s streets continuation to the old city.</p>
<p>The sultanate palace is infront of Kasbah and is being turned into a museum, but now has lost its attraction potential, being surrounded by good fortifications.</p>
<p>Due to the building of many houses in the town, most people have shifted away from the city center building, away from the city, hence making the buildings in the city to be old. However, the town of Kasbah is still a nice place to live in, with many luxurious houses and in good condition.</p>
<p>Sultan Moulay Ismail is the one who ordered for the raising of Dar El Makhzen where the sultan used to live. However, he shifted and in 1912, he turned it into a museum of art where you could find craftsmanships as well as volubilis which attract most visitors into the museum.<br />
The most attractive and busiest place is Place de France, with a number of restaurants, cafes and shops and the meeting place for nationalists as well as national expatriates.<br />
The place is a well-stocked and fashionable town, which is different from all other towns in Morocco.</p>
<p>The many stylish Moroccan palaces in the place have been taken care of by American multimillionaire Maicom Forbes.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is a half oasis and citadel made of pink and orange high wall and tinted  circuits of majestic gold.</p>
<p>This is a traditional Moroccan town with clay  houses of oranges and pomegrates that grow under the Atlas Mountain. Visitors  get attracted to see the walls, souks and strak back drops of this atlas.</p>
<p>There is a bigger belief of local craftwork reaching the international  airport when you are in Tarbudant. It can take you 1 hour trip so you can  prepare yourself for the excursions when you reach Glaoui Kasbah in Tallouine,  which is 50 miles from the airport.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Towards the Atlas Mountain lies the Ouarzazate. This is most popular with  tourists travelling in the Sahara desert. In provisions of desert treks, it  becomes a good place to stock.<br />
The scenic trips in the surrounding area  provides tourists with the true African nature of the ancient Kasbahs.</p>
<p>With all coming from Lawrence, Morocco’s major watched city is the Ouarzazate  where a number of mountain, moon and stars were being filled.<br />
The studios are  raised outside the town, being opened to the whole public for tourism.<br />
The  Kasbah has been used as a movie set for many times and the Artisans being seen  in the movies. The town also handles a number of activities such as shopping inn  the centre of the city.</p>
<p>Alt-Behaddou is one of the best-ranked cities by UNESCO because of its beauty  and fortified village made out of clay architecture.</p>
<p><strong>Ouarzazate excursions:</strong><br />
A half-day visit of Ouarzazate.<br />
The Tifoultout, the Taourirt Kasban when there is no shooting the Atlas  Films, can be visited.</p>
<p>A half visit of Oasis.<br />
This is a pre-Saharan beautiful landscape, which  is 10km far away from the land rover. The landscape I covered by plantation and  irrigation system.</p>
<p>Todra and Tineghir Gorges take one day for their visit in the Dades valley,  175km away.<br />
Tineghir is both a market and an administrative block built on  raised plat form overlooking the splendid Todra valley.<br />
The corner tower and  the one towards the Drraa are the common dwellings that can be seen within the  Tinghir oasis commonly known for its Todra canyons and its rocks reach 250  meters of altitude.</p>
<p>Just 1 day to Drraa valley and Zagoor.<br />
This is seen after going through  Tizi Ntiniffit pass, 195km away, then descends to Drraa valley, then to the Agdz  located on the foot of the face which fce Jebel Kissane.<br />
The road will  continue to Qued Drraa River surrounded by palm groves. The library in  Tamegroute is made of 12th Century manuscripts and Korans of the great Berber  pottery.</p>
<p>Visitors will also take a half-day visit at Ail Benhaddou. This village is  characterised by UNESCO (The world’s cultural tresures) 33km away and ranked as  one of the most beautiful villages in the country as well as acting as a décor  for various movies. For immemorable souvenir lunch can be provided in Auberge,  which faces Kasbah.</p>
<p>Anotehr day be spent in Marrakesh 20km away, where you can visit the  Koutoubia mosque exterior (12th Century), Bonia Palace (10th Century), Saadian  tombs (16th Century) and the Mellah Jewish quarter as well as the Djemaa El Fna  Square, the soul and the Menara gerden. In Moroccan palace, optional lunch is  served as well as belly dancer.</p>
<p>Deluxe accommodation:<br />
This cannot be seen alongside the roads towards the  Sahara desert, but can be far away from the dusty roads among the Atlas  Mountains and the desert near Skoura Palmgrove.<br />
However, if you come across  a Darahlam of red brick soaring citadal, then you would have reached the “Golden  House”.<br />
This image usually comes from the oasis used as a hunting ground for  the Sultan in Medieval, which mixes both French and Moroccan values.</p>
<p>The Parisian Entrepreneurs are thanked for their renovation work in the 19th  Century led by Thierry Teyssier. This building can act as a tourist and a  traditional venture.<br />
The building consists of decorated 3 villa and 8 ensuite  facilities as well as consisting of other unique facilities such as silk drapes,  antiques, traditional shades, while the house is in the middle of palm grove and  a beautiful heated swimming pool. On the edge of the landscape, we find  independent villas. However, some part can be separately rented.<br />
So when  travelling to the Atlas Mountains and the Saharan desert, Dar Ahlam can act as a  stop over for the guests.</p>
<p>Berber Hotel Palace<br />
This hotel consists of traditional crafts and Berber  built in Kasbah style to preserve the local culture. There is a created charman  space of ambience, raised on a high point.<br />
The hotel consists of 240  air-conditioned rooms with each having a private terrace and mini bars. Among  the facilities include dining room serving both Moroccan and international  cuisine, swimming pool, piano and grill bar.</p>
<p>Ouarzazate Royal Golf Club:<br />
Here one can see the spectacular high Atlas  on Golf Club that can be seen from all points.<br />
Its incredibly complex and  captivating to play from here where the Kasbah desert begins, because the course  is surrounded by the desert.<br />
The Oasis nine hole will later be extended to 18  due to man’s determination to make everything prosper in the deep South.</p>
