These features are put into practice:

  • You can enjoy and observe the palm grove. You also have the opportunity to understand the ecosystem and the rational exploitation of this natural resource, so essential to village life (agriculture, irrigation…).
  • The renovation of the Kasbah has been executed with deep respect for traditional architecture. The essential building materials have been drawn from the natural resources of the palm grove and surrounding mountains. Only douar craftsmen worked on its restoration. More
