    © Lonely Planet Publications 227 Imperial Cities, RegionMiddle Atlas & the East ﺍﻷﻃﻠﺲ ﺍﻟﻤﺘﻮﺳﻂ ﻭﺍﻟﺸﺮﻕ ﺭﻬﺸ ﻯﺭﻭﺘﺍﺭﭙﻤﺍ If you were to look for Morocco in microcosm, this region would take the title. Its diversity runs the spectrum from ancient cities and ruins to grand mountain vistas and desert oases. The plains of the north have acted as Morocco’s breadbasket for centuries, feeding the rise of cities whose culture went on to dominate the rest of the country. The Romans were the first to get in on the act, and left remains at Volubilis as testament. IMPERIAL CITIES, MIDDLE The streets of Fez’s World Heritage medina rank high on the must-see list of any visitor to & THE EAST ATLAS the country. Getting lost amid the souqs and alleys is an unforgettable (and often unavoid- able) way to spend a day. Meknès, another imperial capital and near neighbour to Fez offers a more pocket-sized version of the medina experience. To the south, the land rises into the limestone range of the Middle Atlas, which are home to the Barbary ape, Morocco’s only monkey. The area is made for hiking, and in winter the wealthy still come here to ski. Across the mountains, towns like Midelt herald drier climes, and the distinctive kasbahs of the south begin to make an appearance. The desert isn’t far away, and by the time you reach the oasis of Figuig, the olive tree has long given way to the date palm. HIGHLIGHTS Dive into the warren of medina streets looking for souqs and souvenirs in historic Fez ( p228 ) Enjoy the sounds of the sublime at the Fes Festival of World

  • A Note from Sir Richard Branson
    A NOTE FROM SIR RICHARD BRANSON “ In 1998, I went to Morocco with the goal of circumnavigating the globe in a hot air balloon. Whilst there, my parents found a beautiful Kasbah and dreamed of turning it into a wonderful Moroccan retreat. Sadly, I didn’t quite manage to realise my goal on that occasion, however I did purchase that magnificent Kasbah and now my parents’ dream has become a reality. I am pleased to welcome you to Kasbah Tamadot, (Tamadot meaning soft breeze in Berber), which is perhaps one of the most beautiful properties in the high Atlas Mountains of Morocco. I hope you enjoy this magical place; I’m sure you too will fall in love with it.” Sir Richard Branson 2- 5 THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW 14 Babouches ACTIVITIES AT KASBAH Babysitting TAMADOT Cash and credit cards Stargazing Cigars Trekking in the Atlas Mountains Departure Asni Market Tours WELCOME TO KASBAH TAMADOT Do not disturb Cooking classes Fire evacuation routes Welcome to Kasbah Tamadot (pronounced: tam-a-dot)!
