Venture off the beaten path with a day trip to Khamlia, a small Berber village nestled in the Sahara Desert, just south of the famous dunes of Erg Chebbi. Known as the "Village of the Gnawa," Khamlia offers a unique glimpse into the rich musical heritage of Morocco's sub-Saharan roots. The highlight of your visit will be experiencing the hypnotic rhythms of Gnawa music, performed by the talented local musicians dressed in colorful traditional attire. Their performances, featuring instruments like the krakebs (metal castanets) and the guembri (a three-stringed lute), often lead to impromptu dance sessions where visitors are encouraged to join in. Between musical interludes, explore the village's small museum showcasing Gnawa culture or enjoy a cup of sweet mint tea with locals. It’s a memorable contrast to Morocco's bigger, more bustling cities.
