Aït Benhaddou felt like stepping onto a movie set...because it basically is one. It's one of those places that almost doesn't look real until you're walking through it. The mud-brick buildings, narrow alleyways, and views from the top make it worth taking your time to explore. I

f you've seen Gladiator, Game of Thrones, or The Mummy, there's a good chance you've already seen this place on screen. It can get busy, but it's one of those iconic stops in Morocco that I think is absolutely worth seeing at least once.
