Drâa-Tafilalet, Administrative region in southeastern Morocco

The region incorporates five provinces across 88,836 square kilometers of territory between the Atlas Mountains and Sahara Desert, including Errachidia, Zagora, Midelt, Ouarzazate, and Tinghir.

Established in 2015 through the integration of territories from former Meknès-Tafilalet and Souss-Massa-Drâa regions, with Errachidia designated as the regional capital.

The provinces maintain traditional craft industries, with Tamegroute recognized for pottery production and Taznakht specializing in carpet manufacturing techniques.

National Routes 9 and 10 connect major cities within the region, while commercial airports in Errachidia, Ouarzazate, and Zagora provide air transportation options.

The Ouarzazate Province houses substantial film production facilities near the edge of the Sahara Desert, attracting international cinema projects.
