Located in the Marrakech-Safi region of southern Morocco, at the foot of the majestic Atlas Mountains, Ait Bahya is one of the traditional Berber villages. It is famous for its well-preserved adobe complexes, unique kasbahs (fortress-like dwellings) and winding stone alleyways, which perfectly demonstrate the wisdom of the Berbers to live in harmony with nature. The village is surrounded by terraced fields planted with olives, apricots and other crops, and the scenery varies throughout the seasons, making it an ideal place to experience Moroccan countryside life. Although not as well known as the neighboring ancient town of Ait Benhaddou, Ait Baha retains a more primitive atmosphere of life, where visitors can taste the traditional Berber cuisine, listen to ancient songs, and feel the deep heritage of North African culture.
Fond du Sac is a coastal town in the northwestern part of the African island nation of Mauritius, about 15 kilometers north of the capital city of Port Louis, in the district of Pamplemousses. With fishing and light industry as the mainstays of its economy and an active fishing port that supplies the surrounding markets with daily fresh catches, this town is one of the windows to experience the maritime culture of Mauritius. The local community is a mix of African, Indian, European and Chinese cultures, and the traditional markets are full of local flavor and attract visitors with their handicrafts and street food. Fond du Sac's proximity to the famous Mauritian attractions of Pamplemousses Gardens and the Red Roof Chapel makes it an ideal stopover for exploring the north of Mauritius, combining lifestyle and tourist convenience.
