What to expect
The Ounila Valley is home to the Telouet Kasbah, a historic palace that was the seat of the El Glaoui family's power. The kasbah is located on the outskirts of the small Berber village of Telouet, in the High Atlas mountains. It was built starting in 1860 and features a mix of classical Andalusi-Moroccan and local Amazigh styles, with intricate zellij and carved stucco decorations. The palace has a rich history, having been the residence of the Glaoui family, who were prominent figures in Moroccan politics during the French colonial period. Today, the kasbah is a popular tourist destination, with some sections fully restored and open to visitors
