Morocco: berber bar in a square inside the fortified city, Kasbah Taourirt, in eastern Ouarzazate with closed street shops on the right. For a long time, Ouarzazate was a small crossing point for African traders on their way to northern Morocco and Europe. During the French period, Ouarzazate expanded considerably as a garrison town, administrative centre and customs post. It is home to the kasbah of Taourirt, which was the casbah of the former leader.
