Behind the Scenes of a Beni Ourain Rug

Behind the Scenes of a Beni Ourain Rug

Set off deep into the Atlas Mountains, the range that crosses North Africa where a substantial portion of Eastern Morocco forms, and you'll find villages where remote mountain communities still weave Beni Ourain rugs. Many Amazigh (Berber) tribes in the Middle Atlas continue to live in communities that are only accessible via trails jutting out from the sides of cliffs. These villages are renowned for their ability to weave Beni Ourain rugs, an ancient craft that has garnered admirers from around the world.
