Salem, Montserrat, one of the main towns of the British Overseas Territory of Montserrat in the Caribbean, is located in the southwestern part of the island, relatively far away from the active area of the active volcano, Montsoufriere, and has become an important center of population on the island. Since the eruption of the volcano in 1995, which destroyed the original capital, Plymouth, Salem and the surrounding area have gradually assumed administrative and living functions, and is now one of the safer and more active communities in Montserrat. Characterized by low-rise buildings, tropical vegetation and a laid-back Caribbean atmosphere, the economy is based on tourism, agriculture (e.g. cotton, citrus farming) and light industry. Despite its small size, Salem demonstrates the resilience of the people of Montserrat to rebuild after natural disasters and is an ideal place to experience the volcanic landscape and unique culture of the region.
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.
