OUARZAZATE

A land of golden dunes and ancient fortresses, where the whispers of caravans still echo through the towering kasbahs. Ouarzazate is more than a city it’s a living, breathing film set sculpted by the winds of history. Beneath the endless sky, storytellers, dreamers, and adventurers find inspiration in its sun-scorched landscapes, where every sunset paints a masterpiece and every shadow hides a tale waiting to be told.

It’s not a surprise that David Lean, Ridley Scot, Martin Scorsese or Alejandro González Iñárritu, have chosen this destination, just like their forefathers did who became famous for filming the record-breaking« GAME OF THRONES » “Lawrence of Arabia”, “Gladiator”, “Kundun”, “Babel” and most recently « Prison Break »
It’s easy to see why the creators of Game of Thrones decided to use Ait Ben Haddou as the backdrop for the so-called ‘yellow city’. It perfectly fits George RR Martin’s description of Yunkai .
