  • On the road from Meknes to Azrou, about 18km north of Azrou, there’s a roadside lay-by called Paysage Ito which has excellent views over a volcanic plateau. According to my guide book this was used as a backdrop in many sci-fi movies in the 1970s. We had planned to stop here for a picnic but it was very cold and windy so we had to eat in the car. We did get out briefly to take in the spectacular views.

     hi Barry Ive enjoyed your page and my reminisce of Azrou! One visit I haggled on my own and got a carpet for 200 dirham - was rather pleased with that!and the patisserie breakfast for coffee and pancake things!

     a Berber-market is always interesting, although maybe a bit muddy after a rainfall...

     Very interesting - I've enjoyed getting to know about a less well-known part of the country

     A great view at Azrou on your intro! I guess you should climb up a hill to catch this pic! Thanks Barry for a virtual travel. I suppose berber's way of living is very interesting...
