DAY 14, Tuesday March 15 Ait Benhaddou



Ait Benhaddou
 Ait Benhaddou is 32 Km from Ourzazate and to get there
I had to take a grand taxi from Ourzazate.

The Kasbah has been used for many movies, among others Lawrence of Arabia, Sodom and Gomorrah, and Jesus of Nazareth, some of the buildings were built around the 11th century.
the following pictures are of the town across the Kasbah








Entrance to the The Kasbah 











I had a drink at this restaurant overlooking the Kasbah
such a tranquil place.



Now this is part of the Kasbah, there are still families living there
and some shops with souvenirs and many groups of tourists



I walked along the river to the other entrance         



Impressive eh!











There was a group of Chinese tourists, there were several cats as
 it is so common in all Morocco
