In Part 2 we lose the never ending roadworks and gain stunning scenery with an out of this world appearance, hence the frequent use of Aït Ben Haddou in block buster movies and TV series such as “Game of Thrones”. Our route follows the spectacular Ounila Valley carved through the red and orange rock over many millennia by the Asif Ounila (river).
Aït Benhaddou is an ighrem (fortified village in English) situated on the former caravan route between the Sahara Desert and Marrakech in present-day Morocco. Inside the walls of the ksar are half a dozen kasbahs, or merchant’s houses. Ksar Aït Ben Haddou is a great example of Moroccan earthen clay architecture and has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1987. Here is a list of some of the films containing sequences filmed at Aït Ben Haddou -
Sodom and Gomorrah (1962 film) - Oedipus Rex (1967 film) - The Man Who Would Be King (1975 film) - The Message (1976 film) - Jesus of Nazareth (1977) - Time Bandits (1981) - Marco Polo (1982 miniseries) - The Jewel of the Nile (1985 film) - The Living Daylights (1987 film) - The Last Temptation of Christ (1988 film) - The Sheltering Sky (1990 film) - Kundun (1997 film) - The Mummy (1999 film) -
