|  | Marrakech owes its nickname, the "Red City," to the ochre color of the land and buildings. A mysterious, sensuous city, it will make an indelible impression on you.
Explore the Medina and its souks
The old city, called the Medina, is the biggest in all of North Africa. Get lost in the souks (but don't lose your friends!), check out the wares, and just enjoy the show!
A show city
Here, the fun is in the streets, courtesy of acrobats, jugglers, storytellers, and snake charmers. This is especially true at nightfall, where the best place to be is at the Jemaa el Fna market place, the nerve center of the Medina. |

| | Jemaa el Fna market place
During the day, sit at one of the outdoor cafes and contemplate the hustle and bustle of this huge square. At night, dozens of food stalls open up. Perfect for dining together, Moroccan style.
El Bahia Palace
The palace, courtyard and gardens are considered one of the most magnificent examples of Moroccan architecture. A great outing in store for all.
Koutoubia Mosque
Recently restored, this mosque is definitely worth a visit. You can see the minaret from Jemaa el Fna, looking towards the new city. |
