TAMEGROUTE + TAMNOUGALT

Clay and Memories

Tamnougalt sits above the Draa River — a walled memory of the old caravan days, its clay towers leaning gently toward the palms. Farther south, Tamegroute still fires its famous green pottery in underground kilns, the glaze dark and ancient, like river silt. It’s a stretch of Morocco where sound softens, colors fade, and every wall seems to hum with the patience of centuries.
