Encyclopedic overview

Zagora (Arabic: زاكورة) is a town located in the Draa River valley in the Moroccan region of Drâa-Tafilalet.

On the base of the Zagora Mountain the remains of an Almoravid fortress can still be seen. The exact location of the former Almoravid mosque is still a matter of dispute. Each year the moussem (festival) of the Sufi saint Moulay Abdelkader Jilali is celebrated at Zagora.
