THIS IS MARRAKECH

From the winding and confusing alleyways in the Old Medina to the lush desert gardens at Yves Saint Laurent’s Jardin Majorelle, This Is Marrakech.

 

A view from the airplane window will reveal a red dust covering a rustic city that makes you wonder if you've made the right travel choice. Once you're on the ground and out of the airport, it's completely evident that Marrakech is indeed an oasis that will fuel your senses. The sights, sounds, aromas and tastes of the Red City are everything you could ever imagine.

 

Jamaa El-Fna is the main square and the heart of Marrakech's Old Medina. Here you'll find an abundance of fresh squeezed orange juice, temporary restaurant stalls that have operated for decades, overprice souvenirs and deafening sounds of entertainers. Snakes will charm you and monkeys will delight for a price as will any photo you capture.

Don't miss the incredible Ben Youssef Madrasa, a centuries old Islamic college which is now a historical site and a popular one at that. Have your camera ready as the tile work is like an explosion of colour and patterns. The Alahambra architectural feel will remind you of Morocco's strong connection to Spain and the doorways are phenomenal.
