of Amazigh culture and tradition. Meet the villagers, stroll through the gardens, take part in the festivities, not forgetting to stop off at the <strong><em>tafarnout<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0(the traditional oven in which the bread of the same name is baked). The village of Tamdakhte is located in the Ounila valley (High Atlas), between Telouet and Ouarzazate, the starting point for the route of a thousand kasbahs.<\/p><p align=\"justify\">The kasbah of Tamdakhte is a centuries-old architectural jewel, which is unfortunately falling into ruin. History tells us that it was originally the residence of an Amazigh chief, the<em><strong>amghar<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0Ali Ou Brahim n'A\u00eft Haddou opposed the Glaoui. When he was defeated and executed in 1900, his residence passed into the hands of the Glaoui. It was extended by Ca\u00efd Hamou around 1920 and Ca\u00efd Brahim added annexes around 1940.<\/p><p>After independence, the Kasbah was used as a prison by the Oufkir family following General Oufkir's attempted coup d'\u00e9tat in 1972. Oufkir was Hassan II's army commander-in-chief and defence minister. On this occasion, the kasbah was modified to prevent contact with the outside world.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1fd1aaf e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"1fd1aaf\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cdb3650 elementor-widget__width-inherit entrance-right elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"cdb3650\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1537\" height=\"2049\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ksarighnda.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/tamdakht-2.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-4930\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ksarighnda.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/tamdakht-2.jpg 1537w, https:\/\/www.ksarighnda.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/tamdakht-2-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.ksarighnda.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/tamdakht-2-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ksarighnda.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/tamdakht-2-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/www.ksarighnda.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/tamdakht-2-9x12.jpg 9w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1537px) 100vw, 1537px\" title=\"\">\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7664dff e-con-full e-flex e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"7664dff\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bcb5931 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"bcb5931\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-62c8995 elementor-widget__width-inherit entrance-left elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"62c8995\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1707\" height=\"2560\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ksarighnda.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/tamdakht-4-scaled.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-4932\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ksarighnda.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/tamdakht-4-scaled.jpg 1707w, https:\/\/www.ksarighnda.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/tamdakht-4-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.ksarighnda.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/tamdakht-4-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/www.ksarighnda.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/tamdakht-4-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ksarighnda.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/tamdakht-4-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ksarighnda.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/tamdakht-4-1365x2048.jpg 1365w, https:\/\/www.ksarighnda.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/tamdakht-4-8x12.jpg 8w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1707px) 100vw, 1707px\" title=\"\">\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-86c7d6b e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"86c7d6b\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1188f5e e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"1188f5e\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e513251 entrance-bottom elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"e513251\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">An encounter with mineral nature <\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e189f1d elementor-widget-laptop__width-initial entrance-bottom elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"e189f1d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The term \"kasbah\" is generally used to describe a square building made of mud.
