Matmata, located in southeastern Tunisia near the edge of the Sahara Desert, is a traditional Berber settlement. The town is famous for its unique underground cave houses, in which the inhabitants excavate deep pits in soft rock formations and then cut out rooms in the walls of the pits, which are warm in winter and cool in summer, making them a living fossil in the history of North African architecture. Star Wars and many other movies and TV shows have been filmed here, bringing this hidden town to the world. In addition to the cave houses, Martel also retains the traditional handicrafts and market culture of the Berbers. Visitors can experience such folk activities as baklava making and carpet weaving, and feel the primitive and peacefulness of the edge of the desert.
