Secret gardens in Tazzarine
Tazzarine is a small city near the Draa valley, unfairly qualified in the touristic guides that don't find anything special to mention, and can even write it's rather ugly.
Actually, they do not know Tazzarine (or, as Moroccans write it, Tazarine). The tarmac road, made around fifteen years ago, did not pass through the old village and its intricated narrow streets between the casbahs, but outside. As a consequence, like a mushroom-city of the American Wild West, a long commercial street was built, modern and concrete made, with only a few traditionnal houses that belonged before to the outside parts of the city.
That's a fact, this main street is ugly and lacks character.
The heart of the real Tazzarine, which you'll visit by taking the left path at the entrance of the village, is full of hidden wonders.
Like for example, the marabout of Sidi Ben Haki, which reveals itself between the palms at sunset.
