Las abuelas se dejaron envolver por los aromas de la medina de Marrakech y compraron toda clase de potingues en estos magnÃficos bazares donde parece que no corre el tiempo.

Jemna-el-Fna, square of the beheaded,
the centre of old Marrakech, where I
found snake charmers as well as "dentists"
sitting on the ground waiting for customers!
(nevertheless I went to a Bordeaux/France
traned dentist to ease my tooth ache....)
The story of my visit to Marrakech the second destination of my travel through Morocco www.wiseguyofficial.com/africa/marrakech
Our original intention had been to visit the Ben Youssef Madrasa but it was closed on a Monday. Very close by is the Marrakech Museum so that became the alternative and it did not disappoint. Firstly having walked from from Jemaa el-Fnaa through the seemingly chaotic souks and medina being indoors in a beautiful peaceful building was a welcome relief.
The museum has some beautiful features, a lot relating to the building itself., especially the glass covered courtyard. This contains a very large centrally hung chandelier ceiling piece consisting of metal plates decorated with fine geometric and epigraphic cuttings. It really is unusual and quite beautiful.
There is a mixture of exhibits from pottery to photographs and it is a great place to spend an hour or two.
