In recent days, the village of Ba Mohamed, located in the province of Taounate, has transformed into an exceptional tourist destination after its landscapes were blanketed with a natural carpet of purple flowers—a rare sight that has captivated visitors and gone viral on social media platforms.
According to Fès News, the recent rainfall has revived the region’s vegetation cover, turning the village into an open-air natural painting that has drawn dozens of visitors from various cities, especially Fès and its surroundings.
The same sources indicated that the number of visitors has noticeably increased in recent weeks, as the meadows and plains became spots for family outings and photography sessions, creating an unprecedented tourism dynamic in an area that traditionally suffers from weak tourism infrastructure.
Visitors—including families and young people—found in Ba Mohamed a peaceful retreat away from the bustle of city life. Meanwhile, local stakeholders are questioning how to capitalize on this growing interest to promote sustainable rural tourism.
Despite the absence of organized tourism facilities, the simplicity of the place and the charm of its natural scenery have become major draws for the village, located about 58 kilometers from the city of Fès.
Local residents hope that the relevant authorities will take note of this seasonal momentum by supporting infrastructure development and providing basic tourism services, thereby creating local economic opportunities and opening new development prospects.
