Marrakech, or the so-called "Red City," is truly a gem within Morocco-a broad enchantment created by history, culture, and tradition. Once you arrive in this city, you will get, at once, hold of the vibrating atmosphere that permeates every piece of the city.
Begin with the famous Jemaa el-Fna square, a place where narrators, musicians, snake charmers, and other sellers make quite a curious spectacle. Later, get lost in the narrow, labyrinth-like streets of Medina, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where hidden treasures can be found in the busy souks.
Let us not lag behind when the historic palaces of Marrakech take one into the world of the sultans at a time when life was truly led like kings, including Bahia Palace and El Badi Palace. Equally salient are lush gardens, such as Majorelle Gardens, standing in respite from hustle and bustle.
From pungent smells to a riot of colors, from carpets in every hue to the finest ceramics and spices, marvel at the handicrafts on sale in Marrakech's souks. Make sure not to miss a sample of Moroccan food in one of the many restaurants this city has. Full of exotic flavors, it surely will give your taste buds a ride they'll never forget.
Take a break and indulge in relaxation in one of the many traditional riads Marrakech hides behind discreet doors in the Medina: the Moroccan guesthouses that offer you a haven of peace, soaking up the magical atmosphere of the city while enjoying warm hospitality from the locals.
Sightseeing through historical sites, leisurely walking through busy souks, or simply steeping oneself in the magical atmosphere-the visit to Marrakech cannot leave one disappointed, as it stirs up all senses.
