Description

Rgabi Ait Hassou is a small town in southern Morocco's Sahara Desert, about 450 km south of Marrakesh, inhabited by the Berber people who speak Tamazight. Berbers are the indigenous people of North Africa, and while most have converted to Islam after the Arab invasions in the 8th century, they have maintained their culture, traditions, and language. https://www.rgabi.com/
