Ait-Ben-Haddou is a traditional southern Morocco earthen village made from clay bricks.

Historically, traders traversed the Sahara Trade Route and passed through the town carrying spices and gold on their way elsewhere.Recognized as a UNESCO site, the Ksar Aït Benhaddou in Ouarzazate is one of the most extraordinary Kasbahs in Morocco. This giant fortification, which is made up of six kasbahs and nearly fifty ksours (individual kasbahs), is a great example of pisé clay architecture.
