Of my favorite things to do in Morocco, Ouarzazate attractions are among the top of my list. It is the picture-perfect place in the middle of the Sahara, away from civilization, with amazing kasbahs and places of interest. Best of all? It is home to Atlas Studios Morocco:
1) set at Atlas Studios Morocco
Hollywood’s playgrounds
Also dubbed the Hollywood of il Maghreb, Atlas Studios Morocco is where blockbusters such as Lawrence of Arabia and other films like Gladiator, Babel and Kingdom of Heaven where filmed (Wiki). In fact, Atlas Studios Morocco is one of the largest movie studios in the world. As if Ouarzazate’s surroundings weren’t enough!
2) Perfect for your ancient temple shooting needs ;)
3) nope, it's not Egypt!
4) Pretty cool how these columns are close to those in Egypt's temples!
Diversify your Moroccan itinerary!
Atlas Studios Morocco is a must-see Ouarzazate attraction and will sure spice up your Moroccan itinerary with something different. The vastness of the largest film studio on Earth can’t obviously be properly portrayed in pictures, so you’ll have to go visit and see for yourself! 
Atlas Studios Morocco - majestic in a unique way. From sand dunes to ancient temple sets, the world's largest film studio has it all!
