A Great Find
Fantastic collection of artifacts collected and displayed throughout this Berber Kasbah. The owner and resident is passionate about his collection (and family home). Very friendly and a great host. On the approach to the Gorge on the left hand side you will notice a sign written in white paint. Take time out to visit this great place. You will not be glad you did.

Life in the Berber Kasbah
The Museum hidden in the narrow streets and paths of the Toudra village, 5-10 min of walk through the Palmarium from the Gorge. The Museum owner collects artifacts of the Berber and Arab culture for couple of decades, which are presented here. However, the most interesting part of the Museum is the Kasbah itself. The owner guides you through different rooms and parts of this kasbah (which is the oldest one in this village) and thus you can see how the extent family (100-200 people!) lived here in the past. Really worth a visit.
