The water, which is nearly black in the shadows, glistens wherever the sun touches it. Canyon walls of various colors reach up to the bright blue sky above and around you.

It’s difficult to believe that this land was at the bottom of the sea millions of years ago. But now, this canyon – Dades Valley (also known as Dades Gorges) – spends much of the year dry. During the dry season, the Dades River, which is responsible for cutting these canyon walls, appears more like a creek than a river.

Ouarzazate:

First and foremost, the color of Ouarzazate appeals to me. Morocco’s color is the color of the raw earth, of these adobe houses. This city’s color is soft and warm. Shades of orange ochre and pinkish ochre that are characteristic of arid soils and deserts. The soothing atmosphere of the city will then astound you. It exudes Olympian serenity.

For example, you can find wooden dolls and cars… Actually, if you’ve been to Hollywood in Los Angeles, we don’t recommend going back because it’s not worth it.

Second, Ouarzazate is well-known for the Taourirt Kasbah, which was built by the Thami Glaoui family. This Kasbah is a 300-room maze of mystery. It is necessary to purchase a ticket in order to explore. As a result, it is preferable to visit the Kasbah of Ait Benhaddou instead.
