Sahara Desert

4.8/5
141 reviews
Sahara Desert spans across multiple North African countries and is one of the world's largest sandy deserts. Rolling sand dunes create wave-like patterns, with black volcanic rock formations scattered throughout. The rock walls preserve prehistoric hunting murals and petroglyphs, documenting ecological changes and human activity from thousands of years ago. The unique climate has shaped a distinct ecosystem, where drought-resistant plants, fennec foxes, desert lizards, and other animals thrive. Oases, sustained by underground water veins, are scattered along the desert's edge, where villages surrounded by palm groves preserve traditional mud-brick architecture, and nomadic peoples maintain their traditional way of life alongside camels. Travelers can experience desert camping, observe the Milky Way under a night sky with minimal light pollution, or explore desert fossils and geological views.Morocco · Errachidia Province
Ziz Canyon Gargantas

Ziz Canyon Gargantas

4.1
Located in southeastern Morocco, the Ziz Gorge is one of the country's more spectacular natural landscapes, attracting many tourists with its majestic landforms and rich cultural history. The canyon was cut by the Ziz River, which flows out of the Atlas Mountains, winds through the desert, and finally merges into the Sahara Desert. This geographical feature not only creates the magnificent landscape of the canyon, but also forms an oasis along the river, providing an important living resource for local residents. The canyon is flanked by steep cliffs and colorful rocks. Under the sunlight, it presents a charming light and shadow effect, with various tones such as red, orange, and brown intertwined, like a natural oil painting. The canyon is long and winding. Walking along the canyon, you can enjoy the various shapes of rocks, some of which are like swords piercing the sky, and some are like giant beasts crouching and watching. At the bottom of the canyon, the Ziz River flows, bringing vitality and vitality to this arid land.Errachidia Province · 27 km from Errachidia

Todgha Gorge

Todgha Gorge is located near Tinerhir in the eastern part of the Atlas Mountains in Morocco, formed by the Todgha and Dades rivers cutting through limestone over a long period. Starting from Tinerhir, a road winds into the gorge, passing mud-brick villages and ancient kasbahs along the way. As you go deeper, the rock walls on both sides gradually rise and narrow, reaching a width of only approx. 10m at the narrowest point, while the cliffs tower hundreds of meters high. Standing at the bottom of the valley and looking up, the steep, smooth rock walls look like a split in the earth that blocks out most of the sky. The rock walls in the core section of the gorge are nearly vertical and smooth, with limestone walls displaying a blend of brownish-red and golden hues that show distinct layers under the sunlight. During the dry season, the riverbed is mostly dry and can be traversed on foot, while water levels rise significantly during the rainy season. You can traverse this section by car or on foot. Walking offers a more direct experience of the gorge's imposing and magnificent scale without the obstruction of a car roof. Hundreds of rock climbing routes have been established on the cliff walls, ranging from beginner to advanced levels, making it a popular destination for climbers in Morocco. You can hike a loop along the trail, which offers panoramic views of the Atlas Mountains highlands and passes through Berber villages.Morocco · Tinerhir

Aït Benhaddou is an ancient earthen settlement in the heart of the Atlas Mountains in southern Morocco, situated on the ancient trade route connecting the Sahara Desert and Marrakech. It was once an important transfer station for the transport of gold, salt, and spices in trans-Saharan trade. It is said that the village was founded in the 8th century. Although most of the existing buildings were constructed after the 17th century, they use earthen construction techniques that have been passed down for hundreds of years, making it a representative relic of earthen architecture in southern Morocco. The entire settlement is built along the hillside, with layers of red earthen walls, corner towers, and kasbahs connected to each other, forming a spatial pattern enclosed by narrow alleys and high walls. The towering defensive walls and corner towers were used to fend off raids in the past, while the layout of residential houses, mosques, and public spaces in close proximity reflects the lifestyle of the Berber community. At the higher part of the village is the former hilltop granary; climbing up here offers a panoramic view of the entire settlement and the valley. While walking through the alleys, you can also see small handicraft shops opened by local residents, and a few families still live in the old village today. Due to its unique ancient city view, this settlement has become a filming location for numerous film and television works. Films such as "Lawrence of Arabia," "The Jewel of the Nile," "The Mummy," and "Gladiator" were all shot here, and it also served as a filming location for the city of Yunkai in "Game of Thrones."Morocco · Ait Ben Haddou

Taourirt Kasbah is located south of the Atlas Mountains on the edge of the Sahara Desert, guarding the strategic valley at the confluence of the Oued Draa and the Dades River. It was once an important station on the trans-Saharan trade route. The kasbah is built of rammed earth and mud bricks and is a typical representative of Berber architectural style. The complex is vast, with an interior that is a labyrinth of narrow passages, steep stairs, and hidden doors. Square towers stand at the four corners, and the outer walls are adorned with geometric patterns and niches. There are still some unrestored areas at the rear of the kasbah where local families continue to live, maintaining their original way of life. It has also served as a filming location many times, appearing in international films such as "Gladiator" and "Prince of Persia."Morocco · Ouarzazate
Ifrane

Ifrane

5.0/5
25 reviews
Ifrane is situated on a plateau in theMiddle Atlasat an altitude of approx. 1,665m. Known as the "Little Switzerland of Morocco" for its Alpine-style stone chalets, red-tiled roofs, and wide, tree-lined avenues, it stands apart from other Moroccan towns. Unlike other towns in Morocco, there is no medina here; instead, you will find manicured parks and French-style patisseries. Built during the French protectorate era as a summer retreat for colonial officials, the town still attracts many Moroccan families seeking to escape the summer heat, while in winter, snow blankets the entire town. Al Akhawayn University is located within the town, and its campus is worth a stroll. The town's landmark is a stone lion statue, carved from a single boulder, standing next to the Parc La Prairie. On the edge of town, Aguelmame Lake is perfect for a morning walk, with particularly beautiful views in the fall when the oak trees change color. Nearby, Ifrane National Park protects vast forests of Atlas cedars, home to the tailless Barbary macaque, a primate species unique to Northern Africa that is often seen jumping through the branches in search of food. When it snows in winter, the ski slopes open, offering a view of snow-covered cedars that is rare to find anywhere else in Northern Africa.Morocco · Ifrane

Moroccan Tannery

4.5/5
93 reviews
Moroccan Tannery is one of the traditional tanneries still operating in the old city of Fez, Morocco, famous for its vast array of circular stone dyeing vats and the traditional manual leather processing techniques that continue to this day. Leather craftsmen first soak animal hides, such as cow and sheep, in a mixture of lime, salt, and pigeon droppings. After softening and cleaning, the hides are placed into dyeing vats of different colors, then removed to dry. The white, red, yellow, and blue colors of the vats intermingle, creating a recognizable traditional craft view. When visiting, the supplier will usually hand you a small sprig of mint, which you can hold to your nose to mask most of the smell. You will then generally be led to the upper terrace of a surrounding leather shop to look down over the entire tannery—the stone vats are spread out like a honeycomb, with workers standing barefoot in the dye, treading and kneading the hides. The large patches of red, yellow, blue, and green spreading out in the sunlight make for a highly recognizable scene in Fez. After viewing, you will likely be taken to the leather goods display floor downstairs, where leather bags, slippers, and jackets are stacked layer by layer by color, featuring vibrant colors and styles that are mostly local.Morocco · Fes

Fes El Bali is an old town in Fes, Morocco, that preserves its traditional urban landscape, with a history dating back to the early 9th century. Once the capital of the Idrisid dynasty, it developed over several dynasties into a historic district composed of city walls, mosques, traditional schools, markets, and residences. The old town's alleys are narrow and winding, with various handicraft workshops and traditional shops scattered throughout. It retains a strong sense of daily life, and some goods are still transported by donkeys and mules. Bab Boujloud is a representative entrance to the old town, distinguished by its blue tile decorations and intricate geometric patterns. Venturing deep into the alleys, you can see the circular dye pits of the Moroccan Tannery, as well as the traditional processes used by artisans to treat, dye, and dry leather. The Al-Qarawiyyin Mosque and its academic buildings carry a long history of religion and education, and crafts such as copperware processing and dye making continue to this day. Strolling through the old town, you can admire traditional architecture and decorations while experiencing the vibrant commerce and handicraft culture that continue to thrive in this historic district.Morocco · Fes

撒哈拉沙漠的辽阔和神秘总是令人着迷。踏入这片沙海,你会立刻被那无尽的黄沙和壮观的自然景观所震撼。每一粒沙子都似乎在诉说着大自然的故事,让人不禁对生命和时间的流转产生深深的敬畏。在这里,你可以真正体会到自然的伟大与人类自身的渺小。无论是日出时分的金色沙丘,还是夜晚星辰下的宁静沙漠,撒哈拉都给予人们无尽的想象和灵感。这是一次心灵的洗礼,一次对自然之美的深刻领悟。

Todra Canyon is a very beautiful and steep canyon with steep peaks and underground rivers. The scenery here is very similar to the Antelope Canyon rocks in the United States, with layers of layers under the sunlight. In addition, there is an underground river here, which flows all year round and you can wade in the water, which is very interesting.

【Ait Ben Haddou】The ancient city is located in Ouarzazate, Morocco, in an oasis on the edge of the Sahara Desert. The entire castle is composed of traditional Moroccan mud houses, mostly built with a mixture of licorice and terracotta. The appearance is slightly rough, but at a glance outside the ancient city, you can be shocked by its spectacular and sacred pattern. As early as 1987, it was listed as a World Cultural Heritage. Walking into the ancient city, you will find that these golden red adobe castles and turrets seem to have drilled out from the ground, which are stunning and dramatic. People can't help but admire the local construction technology, especially under the sunlight, these castles are even more charming. This place not only attracts tourists from all over the world, but also Hollywood directors favor this charming ancient city. Many movies that are popular with movie fans around the world have been filmed here, including "The Lost Tomb", "Star Wars Prequel", "Mission Impossible V", etc., so the ancient city of Haddou has also won the title of Hollywood in North Africa and has become a holy place for many movie lovers. Time: 8:00-19:00 Address: Aït Benhaddou, Morocco

There are many desert tour introductions on the streets and hotels in Marrakech, which is very convenient for traveling the next day. At 7:30, we set off for the journey to Ouarzazate, the gateway to the desert. The scenery on both sides of the road gradually changed from wheat fields to wastelands, with clusters of weeds crawling on the ground like moss. Finally, it became a bare hillside. The Atlas Mountains stretch across northwest Africa, separating the southwestern Mediterranean coastal area from the Sahara Desert, winding for 2,400 kilometers. The name of the mountain range is taken from Atlas, the Hercules who supported the sky with his shoulders in ancient Greek mythology. The ancient Greeks named it after this, meaning that this is the westernmost end of the world. From Marrakech to Ouarzazate, you have to cross the Atlas Mountains, and the winding mountain road turns uphill all the way. The old driver drove the car very fast, and arrived at the first stop, Ait ben Haddou, at nearly twelve o'clock. This Kasabahs (castle) was a pass established by the Berbers four hundred years ago to control the golden salt trade route from South Africa (black Africa south of the Sahara Desert) to Venice. The castle is built on a hill by the river, controlling the valley below. It was originally abandoned. It was rediscovered by European tourists in the 1960s and was named a World Heritage Site in 1987. Director Spiegel and others have filmed movies here, such as "Lawrence of Arabia" and "Gladiator", which made this increasingly forgotten village famous, and hundreds of thousands of tourists come here every year. Ait ben Haddou is also ranked second in the list of popular locations for "Game of Thrones". There are only eight households in the castle now, and most of the houses have collapsed, with no signs of their former glory. They rely on some new houses built during the filming to support the scene. The village built on the hillside is staggered and quite imposing. The outline is like Manhattan in New York and Lujiazui in Shanghai. The construction of the houses here is the same as the dry-rammed earth in China. First, straw and clay are rammed into large bricks and piled up to form walls. Then, beams made of palm trunks and rafters made of reeds are laid on top, and finally, clay and limestone roofs (Lime Chalk) are laid. In the hot desert, the thick walls separate the heat outside. Walking in the corridor, there is a cool breeze.

Nordic style is displayed in Ifrane. I saw the cedar tree. The stone lion in Figure 8 is the symbol of the city. There is a new tourist project: the sightseeing train! This place is known as Little Switzerland! It’s a pity that there are no people and cars during the epidemic.

Fez Medina, the most famous and oldest ancient city in Morocco, the first Islamic city in the history of North Africa, is a treasure of Islamic civilization and Moroccan culture. Its old city has a history of nearly 1,200 years. It is one of the largest existing typical medieval-style cities in the world. It has been the center of religion, culture and art in Morocco for more than a thousand years. It is also one of the four imperial cities of Morocco and has been listed as Entered into world cultural heritage. The old market of Fez is so large that it is known as the largest in the world. The winding lanes of the city are the easiest to get lost in. There are more than a thousand handicraft shops, inheriting ancient and famous traditional craft techniques. Each one is set up in a very narrow maze-like lane, as if life has not changed for hundreds of years. The daily life of local residents has been integrated with religion, becoming a real-life social and humanistic museum.
