Beni Sabih

Beni Sabih is a fortified village, or ksar, in the oasis country of the Drâa valley in southern Morocco. The river’s middle course supports a chain of palm groves and settlements in an otherwise arid landscape. Ksar walls enclose a compact group of dwellings, while cultivated plots lie within the irrigated oasis. Such villages form a characteristic part of the inhabited country along the Drâa.
