THE TAMGROUT LIBRARY, THE POTTERY AND TINFOU SAND DUNES.

The library has a collection of ancient books and manuscripts brought to Tamgrout by Ahmed Ali Ansari Al Tamgrout during the 17th century. It is one of the richest collections in North Africa. Ahmed Ali Ansa Al Tamgrout, theologian, famous scientist and physician with a passionate interest in diseases of the soul and other mental disorders, had the great ambition to contribute to the education of the shepherds and farmers of the Draa.

The pottery workshop is one of the last still producing artisanal pottery in Morocco. A very interesting tour. The Craftsmen will be happy to show and explain how they work.

The Tinfou sand dunes, are 5 kms south of Tamgrout and offer stunning panoramas at sunset. The views from the top of the dunes are magnificent.
