4K UHD Timelapse footage (250 frames) of the Bourj el Baroud. Bourj El Baroud is a ruined watchtower located somewhat south of the mouth of Oued Ksob near Essaouira, Morocco. The locals tell that the ruin inspired the Jimi Hendrix song "Castles Made of Sand". In fact, Hendrix only visited Essaouria once, in 1969, two years after that album was made, so the story is false. The castle was built by Mohammed ben Abdallah in the 18th century, but is mistakenly referred to as "The Portugese Castle" by local guides.
