Ait Ben Haddou is a fortified town in Morocco where every single house is built from red clay brick, and the narrow alleyways twist and turn into a genuine maze. It was built in the 11th century, and honestly, its appearance hasn't changed in ten centuries – it's believed the town took on its current look sometime around the 16th–17th century. And since then... nothing. 😄
That's exactly why Hollywood has practically claimed it as its own film set. "Game of Thrones," "Gladiator," "Jesus of Nazareth," and countless other productions were filmed here. 🎞️ 📽️ You walk along the clay streets and at some point you start expecting someone with a sword and a cape to jump out from around the corner.
