This small town sits at the edge of the Draa Valley, where ancient kasbahs and palm groves meet vast sand dunes. Travelers come here for authentic Berber hospitality, starlit nights, and excursions into the Erg Chegaga dunes. The local souk buzzes with life on market days, selling spices, crafts, and dates. Nearby, the dry lake bed of Lake Iriqui attracts birdwatchers and off-road adventurers.
