Highlights
Located at an altitude of over 100 meters, 200 km from Marrakech, the backdrop of the great outdoors is set between the High Atlas range, its snow-capped summit, and a desert plateau as far as the eye can see. Ouarzazate, the gateway to the great south, at the crossroads of the Drâa and Dades valleys, invites you to embark on the adventure. A desert scent, a magical name, this is the south! A super-production at rest. We wait for "engine!" " Besides, they are there, the big producers, in the premises of the "Atlas Corporation Studios", ready to show you the sets of some of the most famous scenes of cinema ... Beyond that, it is the desert wind, the fennecs which hunt between the rockeries, the blond dunes which undulate near Merzouga, the large date markets of Erfoud, the oasis of Tinghir, the gorges of Dades and Todra, the Kasbah of Taourirt, that from Tifeltout, the Drâa valley, the sun ...

Itinerary
Ideally located in Morocco, in Ouarzazate, CLA Studios takes advantage of the assets of the region. Varied landscapes, from the desert to the oases, passing by the mountainous reliefs and the green plains, that under an omnipresent sun, in the extraordinary light. It's no wonder that internationally acclaimed directors like David Lean, Bernardo Bertolucci, Martin Scorsese, Ridlye Scott or Oiliver Stone chose CLA Studios as their location.
Aït-ben-Haddou is located in the Ounila valley, south of Télouet, fief of Glaoui, valley which was a traditional crossing point for caravans connecting Marrakech to the south of the Sahara, ocher and pink earth overlooking a peaceful oasis and green. On its foothills hang houses that seem to come from the depths of the ages This is a striking example of the architecture of traditional southern Morocco, on the side of a hill at the top of which was a collective granary (an agadir). The village is presented as a set of earthen buildings surrounded by walls, the ksar, which is a type of traditional pre-Saharan habitat. The houses are grouped inside its defensive walls reinforced by corner towers.
It is famous for its age. Indeed, it was one of the first great Berber architectures built! The Kasbah was for a long time the residence of the Pasha of Marrakech, a high dignitary of Moroccan royalty. The tourists will be able to benefit from the external architecture of the monument having the airs of sand castles: walls of a bronzed red rising towards the sky, crenellated towers with the various corners of the Kasbah.

About Marrakech
At the foot of the Atlas Mountains, red-walled Marrakech is famed for its maze-like medina, lively main square and tranquil riads and gardens.
Jemaa el-Fnaa, the great square at the centre of the medina, changes character through the day, from juice sellers and snake charmers in the morning to smoke-wreathed food stalls and musicians after dark. The minaret of the Koutoubia Mosque rises nearby as the city's landmark, and the souks spread north in a warren of lanes selling leather, lanterns, carpets and spices.
Top-ranked sights in Marrakech: Atlas Mountains, Tizi-n'Tichka Pass, Jemaa el-Fna (Djemaa el-Fna).
