FILM CITY AND LOST VALLEY
This is a local version of Universal Studios. If you choose the main inland trail, prepare your spines for a radical soukouss. If you choose the seaside trail, you'll have to do a little rodeo like we did on the way up the sedimentary knoll or go around to the north to get there.
Film City. Here is the Qatari Ok-Coral, the summer residence of the vizier Iznogood, a village built about ten years ago for the TV series Eial Al Deeb
, meaning "The Sons of the Wolf", inspired by a story of the local griot Ahmed Al Misnad. On a sandstormy day, with declining visibility, the place can be quite chilling. Shaken by the journey, we had the joy of running into the welcoming Sudanese forgotten there as a guard. The call to prayer recorded by an eloquent muezzin and broadcast in this place almost gives the illusion.Lost Valley. The same production had another set built a little further north, closer to the sea, consisting of stone huts leaning against the small cliff. Many uninformed visitors repeat stories about these sites: the mystery valley, a disappeared people, etc. It's just a setting that has a little Star Wars feel to it, of stone ruins, like troglodyte dwellings slowly baking in the sun in an unlikely end of the world of mushroom-shaped mineral sculptures. A peculiar geological valley, a bit Martian, which inspired the director.
