A small town and oasis in southern Morocco, 30 kilometers south of Taroudant

"At the top of one of the mountains sits a beautiful kasbah (castle). At the foot of the mountain that leads up to the Kasbah is the tomb of the Hacham of Tioute.... One the side of the mountain is a painted staircase that leads up to the Kasbah. Half way up there is a short turn off and there lies the Hacham of Tioute. Although close to Taroudant, you are removed from any sort of hustle and bustle." Source: Jewish Morocco :  [November 2008]
