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.
Georgetown, the capital of the Cooperative Republic of Guyana, is located on the Atlantic coast in the northeast of the country, near the mouth of the Demerara River, and is the political, economic, cultural and transportation center of the country. Founded in the 18th century as a Dutch and British colony, the port city's colonial architecture is still evident, with buildings such as St. George's Cathedral (one of the tallest wooden churches in the world), the City Hall and the Victorian Law Courts highlighting its unique historical heritage. As the main gateway to Guyana, the port of Georgetown is responsible for much of the country's import and export trade, and the economy is based on agriculture (sugar, rice), mining (bauxite) and light industry. The city's multicultural mix of Indian, African, Chinese and Aboriginal communities has shaped a rich culture of food, music and festivals, making it one of the most vibrant cities in the Caribbean.
