🌴Draa Valley 🌴 Located in the deep south of Morocco, the Draa Valley stretches from the city of Ouarzazate into the Sahara Desert. The Draa Valley is a stunning oasis home to Berber villages, sumptuous Kasbahs, streaming sand dunes, lush green plains, snow-capped Atlas Mountains, endless stretches of palm trees and the Draa. The Upper Draa River valley consists of six stretches of oases/palm groves from north to south: -The Mezguita oasis, with the Agdz and Auriz and south of it the Tamsikht dam. -The oasis of Tinzouline, with Ouled Lagraier, Tinzouline, Ouled Yaoub and a dam south of it. -The Ternata oasis with Zagora. During ancient times, the river of Draa crossed the desert and traveled hundreds of kilometers west until it joined the Atlantic. Today, most of this river has dried but its path still leads through one of the most fascinating landscapes in Morocco. The beauty of the Draa Valley is not its only geographical richness; the valley has thousands of years of history, evidenced by the ancient cave paintings and carvings found in the area. It was in the Draa Valley where archeologists found the statuette of Venus of Tan-Tan, one of the oldest prehistoric sculptures ever discovered. Moreover, the Draa Valley was once an important transit point on the trans-Saharan caravan trading routes, as well as an important trading center for Jewish, Arab, Berber and Christian civilizations. 👇 👇 👉Follow us and tag yourself if you are interested in sharing your most perfect pictures of our beautiful country @moroccofriendlytravel Credit:® @hafiidii.omaar @walidtighazoui. . . #vacations #travelblogger #vacations2020 #vacationspot #VacationsOver #vacationspots #Vacationsoon #travel #morocco #vacationshot #vacationsmodeon #travelstagram #traveladdicted #vacationsforbeauty #vacationswithmylove #vacationstartstomorrow #history #historyinpictures #historylover #historytour #historymade #trip #trippy #tripadvisor #trips #tripstagram #trippyart #Triplets #trippieredd #stayhome
