Location: Just 10 minutes from the airport and close to the centre of Ouarzazate, the main town in the enchanting Draa Valley. Area: Once in its history, Ouarzazate had been a small crossing point for African traders seeking to reach northern cities in Morocco and Europe. During the French period, Ouarzazate expanded considerably as a garrison town, administrative centre, and customs post. At present, it hosts one of the largest movie studios in the world, Atlas Studios. The casbah-town of A?t Benhaddou is nearby. Many excursions through the valley of the Draa River into the Sahara start from the city. These include trips to Zagora, an oasis town surrounded by palm tree plantations, and the traditional departure point for camel trains to Timbuktu (65 days away).
