Taourirt Kasbah

Taourirt Kasbah, Ouarzazate

 
Taourirt Kasbah, a former Glaoui palace, is the main attraction in Ouarzazate. This 300-room fortress, in part restored, marks the junction of 3 rivers – Dadès, Draâ and Ziz – as well as numerous caravan routes. And while Glaoui chiefs - known as caïd - never resided in this opulent palace, the Glaoui kasbah of Taourirt once housed hundreds of people. Tour the palace. Stroll the kasbah’s irregular streets. And if you're visiting at sunset, take in the changing colors of the Sahara.
