Amazing! It looks like a movie set.

As I said, quite a few films were shot here. Wikipedia has a list: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...t_A%C3%AFt_Benhaddou Ouarzazate is the centre of Morocco's film industry. We actually visited one of the studios - but Ait-Ben-Haddou is far more interesting.

Anyone who has traveled to Iceland wouldn't be surprised by this. It's a country of amazing rugged beauty, just made for cinema. And with Icelandair, it's quite easy to do get there now both from North America and Europe. I suggest people look at some of the scenery in the Golden Circle and South Iceland to understand what I mean by this.

Ian Cook shares one of the United Kingdom's most beloved monuments, that dedicated to British Commando Forces. The monument offers panoramic views, including of Ben Nevis and Aonach Mòr.

Professor Abe visits the picturesque town of Ait-Ben-Haddou, Morocco. It is a UNESCO World Heritage site and a very photogenic destination.

The new Ben Stiller film, the Secret Life of Walter Mitty, has focused new attention on Iceland as a venue for film-making. It's a surprising country with a wide variety of scenery...but up to now it has mostly played "somewhere else" in the movies....

Almost hidden in the Medina, a striking display of geometric tilework and exquisitely carved details every where you look.

Possibly the most famous clock tower in the world...but Samantha reminds us that it's actually the bell and not the clock and tower that is Big Ben!

Officials announce Big Ben will be silent for months during repairs next year.

Bruce Springsteen—The Boss—has two concerts planned for Italy this summer, including one in the historic Circus Maximus.

Really incredible!

I enjoy interesting memorials. The setting of this one is amazing! Thanks for sharing this, Ian!

Perfect image of Big Ben!

Thank you Marilyn. We had a great time visiting

Great post about Morocco, one of the prettiest countries in North Africa!

Thanks a lot for your kind comment. You are right - Morocco is an interesting country with lots of fabulous sights.

Gorgeous photography!
