Telouet is a set of mountains with snowy peaks, valleys, and plateaus. It is the territory of origin of the Glaouas, the old caïds who then reigned over the entire southern region and who was called the “lords of the Atlas”. Telouet is home to their home, a splendid kasbah built in the 19th century. A citadel symbol of strength and prestige brings together both a stately residence and a military command post to control the caravan trail and the entire region. The Kasbah of Telouet was an impressive ensemble: fortress, castle, and caravanserai. This fascinating jewel combines typical Amazigh architecture and the more oriental, Hispano-Moorish style, which testifies to the image of grandeur that the old masters wanted to display to the world. The beautifully decorated walls, and the ceilings adorned with rich designs and patterns show the luxury in which lived the Glaoua, owners of the casbah abandoned since 1956.

The Kasbah of Ait Ben Haddou, much as certain Boxed stars, this UNESCO-protected Kasbah seems suspiciously frozen in time. With Hollywood touch-ups, it still resembles its days in the 11th century during the Almoravid caravansary. Movie buffs recognize this red mud-brick Kasbah, from Lawrence of Arabia, Jesus of Nazareth, Jewel of the Nile ( as well as the Egyptian towers, and Gladiator).
