This is a one day excursion trip from Marrakech to Telouet , the Glaoui Kasbah has one of the most spectacular sights of the Atlas –. Although fast decaying into the dark red earth and of little aesthetic value, this vast and weird site offers a unique glimpse into the quasi-medieval power in 20th century Morocco. … It is a tale of chance and cunning, style and melodrama of two brothers from the Glaoui clan. The Kasbah Glaoui was built by Thami el Glaoui, the second great Glaoui chieftain but was abandoned before completion. Of the Kasbah today little remains, but the structure is huge and there is enough to fill a day of impressions. It is said that there are so many connecting passages and locked doors that nobody knew their way around the complex! Sadly, with the harem, the kitchens and the cinema fast crumbling, visitors are only shown the main halls and the reception rooms.
