Our next stop is for lunch and a visit to the UNESCO World Heritage Listed Kasbah Ait Benhaddou.

We continue through Valleys to visit and explore the city of roses called Kelaa Des Mgouna. Known locally for its rose petals (which inadvertently decorate the roadside) and outstanding pise (mud-brick) buildings we would recommend a stop here on any route around the south.
