[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The Berber caves are just ingenious. They don't only offer a fine camouflage from enemies, but they also cater for the everyday comfort from the blazing sun and scorching heat thru tunnels and inside patios, carved in the hills. There are similar ones in southern Spain, but these ones are simply unique.
