The old Berber oasis camel caravan town of Zagora is located in the south-east of Morocco in the Draa Valley. Situated among the date palm groves and oasis of the Draa Valley, Zagora was a stopping point on the ancient desert camel caravan route. Famously, Zagora claims, as indicated by a sign posted in the town, it is 52 days (by camel) from Timbuktu, Mali.
