Ait Benhaddou from the Rock

It was quite a climb but it was worth it for the panoramic views including this view of the Kasbah Ait Benhaddou. It gives you a good look at the famous crenellated towers.

 

In the desert areas of Morocco kasbah means a large estate home like a manor house in English or hacienda in Spanish. The beautiful Kasbah Ait Benhaddou has been designated a World Heritage Site by UNESCO and has been the location for many movies. It sits in a small oasis next to a mostly dry stream bed with towering hills of stone behind it.
