Marrakech, the "pearl of the south", the "red city" ... we do not know how to adjective it anymore. This beautiful Moroccan city is one of the most important in the country. Located at the crossroads of the Sahara and the high Atlas, it is home to nearly 1.5 million people (not counting tourists), So go to visit Marrakech!
You will fall under its spell, from the medina to the ramparts, the buildings are tinged with an ocher red color that leaves no one indifferent. It's even more wonderful in the evening at sunset, when the temperature drops (finally).
But the new city also offers these attractions. Walking along the main street: Avenue Mohamed V, you will find lots of shops, nightclubs, cafes, hotels, restaurants ... and you will arrive in an important neighborhood: Gueliz in which you will discover the sublime Majorelle Garden.
Founded in 1062, Marrakech was a major cultural center of Islamic art but also a major commercial center of Morocco. Between visiting monuments and gardens, stroll in the medina, relaxing Hammam and shopping in the souks ... there is plenty to do in Marrakech.
Not to mention that it is a strategic starting point for many excursions to the high Atlas, the desert or the beaches of South Agadir and Essaouira.
True nerve center, the famous Jemaa-el-Fna is a must for any stay in Marrakech. When night falls, the place awakes and the show begins.
In honor of its reputation, storytellers, tooth pullers, acrobats and of course snake charmers are at the rendezvous. So go get a mint tea on one of the panoramic terraces that surround the square to observe the animation as it should.
Then do not hesitate to mingle with the crowd to eat in one of the many restaurants that invade Jemaa-el-Fna. For only a few dirhams you will taste grilled meats, couscous, salads and even for the more adventurous, calf heads ... (end with a glass of cinnamon spices).
The next morning, you can enjoy a real orange juice in the caravans installed on the square. But if you have a little problem, go to a herbalist, it's very nice and effective.
The souks of Marrakech are particularly famous. You can access it by Souq Assmarine street, the main entrance to the Medina. For the rest of the itinerary, it's up to you to improvise, you will certainly lose yourself. And that's all the charm!
Immerse yourself, get lost, in this maze of stands and discover the souk fabrics, babouches, tinsmiths ...
Given the impressive amount of products, you will find without difficulty souvenirs and gifts to bring back.
