.....another set from the Atlas studios in Ouarzazate, Morocco. I am not sure which film they used this set for - I will let you decide. The guide spoke French, so I could only work out part of what he said. lol! However, this was the location for many well known films (e.g. Astérix et Cléopâtre, Lawrence of Arabia, The Man Who Would Be King, Cleopatra, Kundun, Gladiator and lately Alexander, Kingdom of Heaven and Babel). It was also the location of the November 26, 2006 episode of the television series The Amazing Race 10.

Quite an impressive list of movies made at this spot Patti. Sure Monty Python did something there. Colors are good and I like the shadow play.

Nice post.
