The camel rocks forward and the palm grove opens—rows of tall palms cut into the flat light, and the High Atlas stands like a jagged horizon. In the cool of morning or the slow heat of evening, the Palmeraie’s palms cast long ribs of shade while the camel’s gait sets the pace for observation and quiet conversation.
