(En) Founded in 1906, the Coking Plant of Anderlues was specialized in the production of coke for industrial use.
Coke was obtained by distillation of coal in furnaces and, thanks to its superior fuel coal properties, it was used afterwards to feed the blast furnaces in the steel manufacturing process.
Closed and abandoned since 2002, the site has since undergone many losses and damages, not including an important pollution. While some buildings have now been demolished, there are however still some important parts of the former coking plant.
Among them, the former coal tower, next to the imposing "battery" of 38 furnaces, where the coke was produced. Besides them, we still can see the administrative buildings, the power station with its cooling tower, and buildings for the by-products, which were obtained by recovering the tar and coal gas. There are also a gasometer north side, the coal tip east side and a settling basin south side.

(Fr) Fondées en 1906, les Cokeries d'Anderlues étaient spécialisées dans la fabrication de coke à usage industriel.
Le coke était obtenu par distillation de la houille dans des fours et, grâce à ses propriétés combustibles supérieures au charbon, il servait par après à alimenter les hauts-fourneaux dans le processus de fabrication de l'acier.
Fermé et laissé à l'abandon depuis 2002, le site a depuis lors subi de nombreuses pertes et dégradations, sans compter la pollution qui y règne. Si certains bâtiments (comme l'ancien lavoir à charbon) ont aujourd'hui été démolis, on retrouve encore toutefois certaines parties importantes de cette ancienne cokerie.
Parmi celles-ci, l'ancienne tour à charbon suivie de près par l'imposante "batterie" de 38 fours, où était produit le coke. A côté d'eux, on découvre également les bâtiments administratifs, la centrale électrique avec sa tour de refroidissement, ainsi que les bâtiments des sous-produits, lesquels étaient obtenus par récupération du goudron et du gaz de houille. Et en périphérie, on retrouve un gazomètre côté nord, le terril à l'est et un bassin de décantation côté sud.
Marrakech,مراكش, surnommée la Perle du Sud ou Porte du Sud et la Ville rouge ou Ville ocre, est une ville du Maroc, dans l'intérieur des terres, au pied des montagnes de l'Atlas.
La ville a été fondée en 1062 par Youssef Ibn Tachfin, roi de la dynastie berbère des Almoravides. Dans le passé, le Maroc était connu en Orient sous le nom de Marrakech (appellation toujours d'actualité en Iran) ; le nom Maroc provient lui-même de la déformation de la prononciation portugaise de Marrakech : Marrocos.
Marrakech compte environ 909 000 habitants (recensement de 2012) répartis sur une superficie de 230 km2. La densité de population atteint les 350 habitants à l’hectare dans la Médina. C'est la quatrième plus grande ville du Maroc après Casablanca, Fès et Meknès. La ville est divisée en deux parties distinctes : la Médina ou ville historique (dix kilomètres d'enceinte) et la ville nouvelle dont les quartiers principaux s'appellent Guéliz et Hivernage. Le Guéliz constitue aujourd'hui le centre-ville commercial. Il fut fondé par les Français lors du Protectorat. Le quartier de l'Hivernage concentre de nombreux complexes hôteliers. Depuis quelques années, la ville s'agrandit en périphérie, notamment à l'ouest avec l'apparition de nouveaux quartiers résidentiels comme pour la région de Targa ou l'extension de l'avenue Mohammed-VI, ou au nord Tamansourt.
Marrakech (nombre original en bereber tamurt n Akkuc, Tierra de Dios; en árabe, مراكش Marrākuš, pronunciado coloquialmente Mrrākeš; en castellano antiguo: Marruecos, escrito en grafía francesa Marraquech) es una de las ciudades más importantes de Marruecos, cuenta 1.545.541 habitantes y está al sur del país, al pie del Atlas, a 466 msnm de altura. Posee numerosos monumentos patrimonio de la Humanidad, lo que la convierten en el principal atractivo turístico del país.
Es, junto a Mequinez, Fez y Rabat, una de las cuatro ciudades imperiales de Marruecos.3 Fue fundada en 1062 por los almorávides y fue la capital del Imperio islámico. La ciudad posee el mercado tradicional (suq) más grande del país y una de las plazas más concurridas de África y del mundo, Djemaa el Fna.4 En la plaza se citan acróbatas, cuenta-cuentos, vendedores de agua, bailarines y músicos. Por la noche, la plaza se llena de puestos de comida, convirtiéndose en un gran restaurante al aire libre.
Marrakesh, or Marrakech (Berber: ⵎⵕⵕⴰⴽⵛ; Arabic: مراكش, Murrākuš) is a major city in the northwest African nation of Morocco. It is the fourth largest city in the country after Casablanca, Fes and Rabat, and is the capital of the mid-southwestern economic region of Marrakech-Tensift-El Haouz. Located to the north of the foothills of the snow-capped Atlas Mountains, by road Marrakesh is located 580 km (360 mi) southwest of Tangier, 327 km (203 mi) southwest of the Moroccan capital of Rabat, 239 km (149 mi) southwest of Casablanca, and 246 km (153 mi) northeast of Agadir.
Marrakesh is the most important of Morocco's four former imperial cities. Inhabited by Berber farmers from Neolithic times, the city was founded in 1062 by Abu Bakr ibn Umar, chieftain and cousin of Almoravid king Yusuf ibn Tashfin. In the 12th century, the Almoravids built many madrasas (Koranic schools) and mosques in Marrakesh that bear Andalusian influences. The red walls of the city, built by Ali ibn Yusuf in 1122-1123, and various buildings constructed in red sandstone during this period, have given the city the nickname of the "Red City" or "Ochre City". Marrakesh grew rapidly and established itself as a cultural, religious, and trading centre for the Maghreb and sub-Saharan Africa; Jemaa el-Fnaa is the busiest square in Africa. After a period of decline, the city was surpassed by Fes, but in the early 16th century, Marrakesh again became the capital of the kingdom. The city regained its preeminence under wealthy Saadian sultans Abu Abdallah al-Qaim and Ahmad al-Mansur, who embellished the city with sumptuous palaces such as the El Badi Palace (1578) and restored many ruined monuments. Beginning in the 17th century, the city became popular among Sufi pilgrims for Morocco's seven patron saints, who are entombed here. In 1912 the French Protectorate in Morocco was established and T'hami El Glaoui became Pasha of Marrakesh and held this position nearly throughout the duration of the protectorate until the role was dissolved upon independence of Morocco and the reestablishment of the monarchy in 1956. In 2009, Marrakesh mayor Fatima Zahra Mansouri became the second woman to be elected mayor in Morocco.
Like many Moroccan cities, Marrakesh comprises an old fortified city packed with vendors and their stalls (the medina), bordered by modern neighborhoods, the most prominent of which is Gueliz. Today it is one of the busiest cities in Africa and serves as a major economic centre and tourist destination. Tourism is strongly advocated by the reigning Moroccan monarch, Mohammed VI, with the goal of doubling the number of tourists visiting Morocco to 20 million by 2020. Despite the economic recession, real estate and hotel development in Marrakesh has grown dramatically in the 21st century. Marrakesh is particularly popular with the French, and numerous French celebrities own property in the city. Marrakesh has the largest traditional Berber market (souk) in Morocco, with some 18 souks selling wares ranging from traditional Berber carpets to modern consumer electronics. Crafts employ a significant percentage of the population, who primarily sell their products to tourists.
Marrakesh is served by Ménara International Airport and the Marrakesh railway station, which connects the city to Casablanca and northern Morocco. Marrakesh has several universities and schools, including Cadi Ayyad University. A number of Moroccan football clubs are located here, including Najm de Marrakech, KAC Marrakech, Mouloudia de Marrakech and Chez Ali Club de Marrakech. The Marrakesh Street Circuit hosts the World Touring Car Championship, Auto GP World Series and FIA Formula Two Championship races.

El convento de San Andrés de la orden carmelitana calzados, comenzó al final del siglo XV en un modesto edificio a las afueras de Salamanca, justo al lado de la Puerta de San Pablo.
En 1626 una gran inundación del río Tormes, lo destruyó y por ello se comenzó a reconstruir dando al edificio un aire herreriano ( existen grabados antiguos que lo corroboran), por lo que fue conocido como El Escorial Salmantino.
En 1762 un contingente de tropas francesas con sus armas y monturas, lo dejaron en mal estado. Que se agravó mas con la guerra de la independencia (1808-1814). Y en 1820 fué cerrado definitivamente. Y en 1835 suprimido del archivo de conventos.
Y el Pozo de nieve se construyó hacia 1738, por ser un elemento esencial en aquellos días para la conservación de los alimentos, entre otras cosas. La nieve era traida en carros desde la Sierra de Francia y Béjar. El pozo es un cilindro de 7,10m de profundidad y un diámetro de 6m. Cubierto con una bóveda de pizarra.
En el recinto ahora visitable, también podremos admirar parte de la antigua muralla medieval de Salamanca, las caballerizas y tenadas del convento, parte de la torre nordeste del complejo… Y sobre todo, las misteriosas galerías subterráneas, de origen y función inciertos, que sumergen al visitante en lo ignoto de las profundidades de la tierra.
The convent of San Andrés of the Calzados Carmelite order began at the end of the 15th century in a modest building on the outskirts of Salamanca, right next to the Puerta de San Pablo.
In 1626 a great flood of the river Tormes destroyed it and for this reason it began to be rebuilt giving the building a Herrerian air (there are old engravings that corroborate it), for which it was known as El Escorial Salmantino.
In 1762 a contingent of French troops with their weapons and mounts left it in poor condition. Which got worse with the war of independence (1808-1814). And in 1820 it was definitively closed. And in 1835 it was removed from the convents archive.
And the Snow Well was built around 1738, as it was an essential element in those days for the preservation of food, among other things. The snow was brought in carts from the Sierra de Francia and Béjar. The well is a 7.10m deep cylinder with a 6m diameter. Covered with a slate vault.
In the enclosure that can now be visited, we can also admire part of the old medieval wall of Salamanca, the stables and tenadas of the convent, part of the northeast tower of the complex ... And above all, the mysterious underground galleries, of uncertain origin and function, which submerge the visitor in the unknown of the depths of the earth.
Le couvent de San Andrés de l'ordre des Carmélites Calzados a commencé à la fin du XVe siècle dans un modeste bâtiment à la périphérie de Salamanque, juste à côté de la Puerta de San Pablo.
En 1626, une grande crue de la rivière Tormes l'a détruit et pour cette raison, il a commencé à être reconstruit en donnant au bâtiment un air herrérien (il existe des gravures anciennes qui le corroborent), pour lequel il était connu sous le nom d'El Escorial Salmantino.
En 1762, un contingent de troupes françaises avec leurs armes et leurs montures la laissa en mauvais état. Ce qui s'est aggravé avec la guerre d'indépendance (1808-1814). Et en 1820 il fut définitivement fermé. Et en 1835, il a été retiré des archives des couvents.
Et le Snow Well a été construit vers 1738, car c'était un élément essentiel à l'époque pour la conservation des aliments, entre autres. La neige était amenée en charrettes de la Sierra de Francia et de Béjar. Le puits est un cylindre de 7,10 m de profondeur et 6 m de diamètre. Couvert d'une voûte en ardoise.
Dans l'enceinte que l'on peut désormais visiter, on peut également admirer une partie de l'ancienne muraille médiévale de Salamanque, les écuries et tenadas du couvent, une partie de la tour nord-est du complexe... Et surtout, les mystérieuses galeries souterraines, d'origine et de fonction incertaines, qui plongent le visiteur dans l'inconnu des profondeurs de la terre.

Nach der Andreas-Baader-Befreiung wurde ein von Ulrike Meinhof auf Tonband gesprochener Text im Spiegel veröffentlicht ... sie plädiert dafür, Polizisten nicht als Menschen, sondern als 'pigs' zu bezeichnen:
"Denn wir haben nicht das Problem, dass das Menschen sind, insofern es ihre Funktion ist, beziehungsweise ihre Arbeit ist, die Verbrechen des Systems zu schützen, die Kriminalität des Systems zu verteidigen und zu repräsentieren."

Partido da Imprensa Golpista (PiG) is a term which became widely used among left-wing Brazilian websurfers since 2007 to characterize the attitude of the Brazilian mass media during the 2006 presidential election. The term was popularized by journalist Paulo Henrique Amorim in his blog. Whenever he uses the term, Amorim writes it with a "i" in lowercase as a pun with the name of the web portal "iG" where he was an articulist, before being abruptly dismissed on March 18, 2008, in an action which he describes as a process of "ideological cleansing".

Andreas Baader am 4.Mai 1976 in Stammheim zu Präsident Richard Nixons Vorladung als Zeuge.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=LxRI8--EgEU
Andreas Baader zu Richter Theodor Prinzing:
Wir glauben jedenfalls, daß Sie den Prozeß hier egal was immer sich hier ereignet, gar nicht abkürzen können, weil er tatsächlich vollkommen bestimmt ist von der Dramaturgie des Bundestagswahlkampfs; darauf ist dieser Prozeß bezogen, das ist anzunehmen, zumindest. Deswegen ist gar nicht relevant, was hier gesagt wird, was hier für Zeugen auftreten, das alles spielt überhaupt keine Rolle. Es läuft, es rollt die leere Fassade. Aber ich wollte nochmal sagen, die Anträge sind möglich, weil sie zwei Zusammenhänge vermitteln. Sie fassen 1., wenn das überhaupt juristisch möglich ist, etwa die Widersprüche, aus denen diese Politik sich entwickelt hat und überhaupt möglich war; und sie machen 2. im Ansatz transparent, was der Gegenstand dieses Verfahrens ist, genauer was der Gegenstand rechtlicher Erwägung hier überhaupt nur sein könnte, nämlich die totale Bestimmung, Kontrolle und Verfügung dieses Staates nach innen und außen, Verfügbarkeit dieses Staates nach innen und außen, für die Weltinnenpolitik des Hegemonialen des US-Kapitals. Das heißt, die zentrale, strategische Funktion der Bundesrepublik als ökonomisches, politisches und militärisches Subzentrum des amerikanischen Imperialismus. Hier entwickelt an seiner Funktion 1. für die offene Aggression gegen die Völker der dritten Welt, konkret an Vietnam, und 2., die verdeckte Aggression gegen die Staaten der westeuropäischen Peripherie. Aber juristische Kategorisierungen sind nur kodifizierter Ausdruck realer Machtverhältnisse. Die Anträge der Verteidigung werden also, wie sich das in Ihrer ganzen Geste schon andeutet, unmittelbar natürlich hilflos sein. Das infame Ritual hier wird sich über die Argumentation wälzen, als wäre sie überhaupt nicht gesprochen worden. Und auch nicht gesprochen worden, so sehen wir sie nämlich, als ein Reflex, wenn auch ein schwacher, des globalen Klassenantagonismus, der das gesamte politische Leben in den kapitalistischen Metropolen und wesentlich in der Bundesrepublik seit 6 Jahren militarisiert hat. Ein Ausdruck dieser Militarisierung ist dieses Gericht und seine Verfahrensweise. Aber das Wort darf überhaupt keine Evidenz mehr haben, spricht nur über die Evidenz der Politik, der Aktion, die Sie hier verurteilen sollen, an ihr halten wir ganz sicher fest.

Dokument 1: Auszug aus dem Wortprotokoll vom 4. Mai 1976
(Quelle: StaL El 300 II OLG Stuttgart, Kopien der Verhandlungsniederschriften aus PL 407, Bü 126.)
Helmut Schmidt: ... Von 1941 bis 1942 diente Schmidt als Offizier an der Ostfront und war u. a. an der Leningrader Blockade beteiligt; er erhielt das Eiserne Kreuz 2. Klasse ...
Nach Gründung der Bundeswehr wurde Helmut Schmidt im März 1958 zum Hauptmann d. R. ernannt. Im Oktober/November 1958 nahm er an einer Wehrübung in der „Reichspräsident-Ebert-Kaserne“ in Hamburg-Iserbrook teil und wurde zum Major d. R. befördert;[6] noch während der Übung wurde er daraufhin mit der Begründung, er sei ein Militarist, aus dem Vorstand der SPD-Bundestagsfraktion abgewählt.
... Nach dem Rücktritt Willy Brandts als Regierungschef wählte der Bundestag Schmidt am 16. Mai 1974 mit 267 Ja-Stimmen zum 5. Kanzler der Bundesrepublik. Die größten Herausforderungen in seiner Amtszeit waren ... der Terrorismus der Rote Armee Fraktion (RAF) im sogenannten „Deutschen Herbst“. Seine frühere Verhandlungsbereitschaft mit den Terroristen sah er später als Fehler an und verfolgte von da eine unnachgiebige harte Linie, die ihm Kritik der Angehörigen der Todesopfer einbrachte.
...1978 wurde er für sein Krisenmanagement in der Zeit des RAF-Terrors mit dem Theodor-Heuss-Preis ... ausgezeichnet.
Andreas Baader (6 May 1943 – 18 October 1977) was one of the first leaders of the German left-wing militant organization Red Army Faction, also commonly known as the Baader-Meinhof group.
... According to official accounts of his death, Raspe learned of GSG 9's success on a smuggled transistor radio, and spent the next few hours talking to Baader, Ensslin, and Möller, who agreed to a suicide pact. In the morning, Andreas Baader and Jan-Carl Raspe were found dead in their cells, having died from gunshot wounds, while Gudrun Ensslin was found hanging from a noose made from speaker wire. RAF member Irmgard Möller was found with four stab wounds to her chest, but survived.
All official inquiries on the matter concluded that Baader and his two accomplices committed collective suicide, and Baader-Meinhof biographer Stefan Aust argued in the original edition of his book, The Baader-Meinhof Group (1985) that they almost assuredly did kill themselves.
There are many debatable aspects to the deaths: Baader was supposed to have shot himself in the base of the neck so that the bullet exited through his forehead; repeated tests indicated that it was virtually impossible for a person to hold and fire a gun in such a way. In addition, three bullet holes were found in his cell: one lodged in the wall, one in the mattress, and the fatal bullet itself lodged in the floor, suggesting that Baader had fired twice before killing himself. Finally, Baader had powder burns on his right hand, but he was left-handed. Raspe, however, showed no signs of powder burns.
The theory itself that guns had somehow been smuggled into Stammheim prison depended on the testimony of Hans Joachim Dellwo (brother of prisoner Karl-Heinz Dellwo) and Volker Speitel (husband of Angelika Speitel). Both had been arrested on 2 October 1977, and charged with belonging to a criminal association; under pressure from the police they subsequently admitted to acting as couriers and testified that they were aware of lawyers smuggling items to the prisoners during the trial. Their testimony was, however, tainted because they provided it in order to avoid lengthy prison sentences and received reduced sentences and new identities. In 1979 two defence attorneys were tried and convicted for smuggling weapons. However, as noted above, the lawyers had been unable to meet with their clients after 6 September 1977 due to the Kontaktsperre order.
In the revised version of his comprehensive book on the RAF, which incorporates much new evidence and was published in English in 2009, Stefan Aust is categorical that the group members committed suicide.
Following their apparent suicides, the German government had the brains of Andreas Baader, Ulrike Meinhof, Gudrun Ensslin, and Jan-Carl Raspe removed for study at the Neurological Research Institute at the University of Tübingen. The results of Meinhof's brain study showed damage from an operation for a brain tumor in 1962.[12] The results of the study of other's brains are not known.
Aside from the removal of his brain, a death mask was made of Baader. The brains of all but Meinhof have apparently been lost and cannot be accounted for by German authorities.
Andreas Baader Eine wichtige Bezugsperson des jugendlichen Baader war sein Onkel, der Tänzer und Schauspieler Michael Kroecher. Er tanzte unter anderem den ‚Franzl’ in Franz Schuberts Jahreszeiten der Liebe, den ‚Narren’ in Werner Egks Joan von Zarissa und die Titelrolle in Prometheus von Ludwig van Beethoven.

Shan state is the biggest of the seven burmese states. it represents the quarter of the burmese land. It is the land of the shans, a six million person ethnic group, mainly following the theravada bouddhism.
This celebration took place in Kyaukme, one of the three main cities of the state. A long procession was formed between the city center and a remote temple of the city.
Joy, dances, songs and shan percussions were everywhere. A lovely day!
L'état shan est l'un des sept états birmans, c'est d'ailleurs le plus grand. Il représente le quart du territoire. Il est habité par le peuple shan, une population évalué à 6 millions, à prédominance bouddhiste (theravada). Cette célébration a eu lieu dans la ville de Kyaukme. Elle consistait en une longue procession du centre ville vers un temple en périphérie de Kyaukme. Allégresse, danses, chants et percussions shans étaient omniprésentes. Une journée mémorable !
Montmorency Falls
The Montmorency Falls (French: Chute Montmorency) is a large waterfall on the Montmorency River in Quebec, Canada. The falls are located on the boundary between the borough of Beauport, Quebec City, and Boischatel, about 12 km from the heart of old Quebec City. The area surrounding the falls is protected within the Montmorency Falls Park (French: Parc de la Chute-Montmorency).
The falls, at 84 meters (275 ft) high and 46 meters (150 ft) wide, are the highest in the province of Quebec and 30 meters (98 ft) higher than Niagara Falls. The basin at the foot of the falls is 17 meters (56 ft) deep. The falls are at the mouth of the Montmorency River where it drops over the cliff shore into the Saint Lawrence River, opposite the western end of the Île d'Orleans. The falls were given this name in 1613 by Samuel de Champlain. He named them in honour of Henri II, duc de Montmorency, who served as viceroy of New France from 1620 until 1625.
There are staircases that allow visitors to view the falls from several different perspectives. A suspension bridge over the crest of the falls provides access to both sides of the park as well as a spectacular view. There is also an aerial tram (Funitel) that carries passengers between the base and the top of the falls. In the summer the park hosts an international fireworks competition with the falls as a backdrop.
The remnants of earthen forts built by General Wolfe are located in the eastern portion of the park. They were constructed in 1759. The landings below Quebec City were repulsed by General Montcalm at Montmorency Falls, costing the British 440 soldiers. Ultimately a successful assault was launched when Wolfe made a surprise attack by climbing the cliffs below the Plains of Abraham.
The Falls were the site of a key scene between the lead actors in the 1947 film Whispering City, which was filmed on location.
The Ice Hotel was located at Montmorency Falls for its first year.
In his poem "Sleep and Poetry" (1816), John Keats says that human life is "a poor Indian's sleep / While his boat hastens to the monstrous steep / Of Montmorency." (Wikipedia)

Chute (s) Montmorency
La chute Montmorency (parfois chutes, au pluriel) est une chute d'eau située à l'embouchure de la rivière Montmorency, où celle-ci se déverse par le rivage en falaise dans le fleuve Saint-Laurent, vis-à-vis de l'extrémité ouest de l'Île d'Orléans. Elle est administrativement partagée entre la ville de Québec et la municipalité de Boischatel. La chute, d'une hauteur de 83 mètres, est la plus haute de la province du Québec et dépasse de trente mètres les chutes du Niagara. La profondeur du bassin au pied de la chute est de dix-sept mètres.
La chute est située à l'intérieur du Parc de la Chute-Montmorency, centre touristique géré par la SÉPAQ. Des escaliers (487 marches) permettent de l'observer sous différents angles. Un pont suspendu offrant un point de vue spectaculaire relie les deux côtés du parc. Il y a également un téléphérique qui transporte les visiteurs entre la base et le sommet de la chute. L'hiver, les vapeurs d'eau se solidifient en périphérie de la chute qui devient alors un site populaire d'escalade sur glace en plus de créer une importante masse de glace (le pain de sucre) devant la chute.

Das Castelgrande ist eine Burg in Bellinzona im Kanton Tessin der Schweiz
.
.
.
Der mächtige Felsklotz des Castelgrande bildet das natürliche Zentrum der Talsperre von
Bellinzona. Bis ins 13. Jahrhundert hat nur dieser von allen Seiten her schwer zugängliche
Hügel Befestigungen getragen.
Wenn deshalb im Früh oder Hochmittelalter von einer Burg zu Bellinzona berichtet wird, ist
stets das Castelgrande gemeint ( andere Namen: 14./15.Jahrhundert Castello vecchio, ab
1506 Schloss Uri, 1818 Castello S.Michele ).
.
.
.
Von der bis in die r.ömische und p.rähistorische Zeit zurückreichenden Siedlungsgeschichte
sind nur archäologische Spuren im Boden erhalten geblieben. Auch aus dem H.ochmittel-
alter ( 10. 12. Jahrhundert ) hat das heute noch aufrechte Mauerwerk wenig Reste bewahrt.
Die meisten Gebäude entstammen, soweit sie nicht erst dem 19. oder 20. Jahrhundert
angehören, der Zeit zwischen etwa 1250 und 1500. Sie sind Zeugen einer sehr bewegten
Baugeschichte, die nicht nur von Umbauten, Erweiterungen und Verstärkungen, sondern
auch von Kriegsbeschädigungen, Verwahrlosung und Abbruchunternehmungen geprägt
wird.
Die weitläufige Hügelkuppe, gegen N.orden durch nahezu senkrechte Felswände ge-
schützt, von S.üden her über weniger steile Geländestufen noch immer beschwerlich
genug zugänglich, umfasst ein in Terrassen gegliedertes Plateau von 150 - 200 m
Durchmesser.
Die natürlichen Geländeformen brachten es mit sich, dass zu allen Zeiten künstliche
Verteidigungseinrichtungen der vorgegebenen Kante der Felskuppe folgen mussten,
weshalb der heute noch aufrechte Bering aus dem Spätmittelalter zu einem grossen
Teil auf den Fundamenten der r.ömischen K.astellmauer steht. Diese bestand aus B.ruch-
steinen und ist 1.9.6.7 bei den Ausgrabungen im S.üdtrakt in Verbindung mit einer T.oröffnung
festgestellt worden.
Heute erweckt das Innere des ausgedehnten Burgareals den Eindruck einer weiten Leere.
Dies ist einerseits auf die Beseitigung vieler Gebäude zurückzuführen, die im 15.Jahr-
hundert erfolgt sein muss, anderseits auf den Abbruch der meisten Zeughausbauten aus
dem 19. Jahrhundert im Zuge der Restaurierungsarbeiten unseres Jahrhunderts.
Schriftquellen des 11. bis 15. Jahrhunderts und archäologisch nachgewiesene Fundament-
reste belegen, dass das Castelgrande im Hochmittelalter, aufgeteilt in einzelne Parzellen,
viel dichter überbaut gewesen sein muss, als man sich heute vorstellen kann.
Bis auf die Gebäude, die heute noch stehen, ist diese Überbauung im 15. Jahrhundert
unter den H.erzögen von M.ailand abgetragen worden, da man die Innenfläche, geteilt in
drei grosse H.öfe, vermutlich für die temporäre Einquartierung grösserer Truppenkontingente
im Bedarfsfall frei halten wollte.
Demgemäss konzentrierten sich unter der mailändischen Herrschaft die Bemühungen um
fortifikatorische Verbesserungen der Burg auf die Peripherie der Anlage, wo im Laufe des
14. und vor allem 15. Jahrhunderts in zahlreichen Bauetappen die Ringmauern erhöht und
erneuert wurden, vorgelagerte Zwinger sowie Flankierungstürme entstanden und der
Westabschnitt mit dem Anschluss an die Murata eine gründliche Umgestaltung erfuhr.
Heute kann das Castelgrande am einfachsten mit dem F.ahrstuhl erreicht werden, der vom
Fuss des Burgfelsens direkt ins Innere des Burgareals führt. Im Spätmittelalter erfolgte der
Zugang von der Südseite her, wo zunächst auf halber Höhe des Hügels ein Tor in der
Stadtmauer zu durchqueren war.
Nach ca. 100 m gelangte man in die südlich der Ringmauer vorgelagerten, mit Zinnen
bewehrten Zwinger und stand schliesslich vor dem Haupttor im Südostabschnitt der
Ringmauer. Durch steile Gässchen kann man von der Altstadt aus auch heute noch zu
diesem Tor hochsteigen. Über dem rundbogigen Eingang hat sich ein kleiner Maschikuli-
Erker erhalten.
Das Innere des Castelgrande wird, wie schon erwähnt, seit dem 15. Jahrhundert durch
radial auseinanderlaufende Mauerzüge in drei grosse Höfe eingeteilt. Sie beginnen bei der
Torre Nera, einem Viereckturm, der sich ungefähr im Mittelpunkt des Burgareals erhebt.
Dendrochronologisch ist seine Errichtung ins frühe 14. Jahrhundert datiert, eine
Aufstockung dürfte im 15. Jahrhundert er folgt sein.
Weiter östlich erhebt sich der Gebäudekomplex des Ridotto, in dessen Zentrum die Torre
Bianca, das höchste Bauwerk des Castelgrande, aufragt. Der schlanke, quadratische Turm
stammt wohl aus dem 13. Jahrhundert.
Das ihn umgebende Mauergeviert des Ridotto ist mit dem im 12.Jahrhundert urkundich
bezeugten P.alazzo des B.ischofs von C.ome zu identifizieren und dürfte noch Bausubstanz
aus dem 10./11. Jahrhundert enthalten.
Über die in seinem Innern freigelegten Mauerreste liegt leider keine archäologische
Dokumentation vor. Die südliche Peripherie der Burg wird durch einen länglichen, inwendig
an die Ringmauer angelehnten Baukomplex, den sog. Südtrakt, begrenzt.
Er ist mehrphasig im Verlaufe des 13. bis 15. Jahrhunderts auf den Fundamenten älterer
Bauten entstanden. Auch die Ringmauer verrät in diesem Abschnitt verschiedene Bau-
etappen. Zu erkennen sind noch zwei Reihen von Schwalbenschwanzzinnen aus dem
13. bzw. 15. Jahrhundert. Beim westlich angrenzenden, nach N.orden abgewinkelten Trakt
handelt es sich um einen modern umgestalteten Z.eughausbau aus dem 19. Jahrhundert.
Bei der archäologischen Untersuchung des südlichen Hofes sind ausser p.rähistorischen
S.iedlungsspuren, r.ömischen F.undschichten und einem mittelalterlichen S.chachtbrunnen
auch P.lattengräber aus hochmittelalterlicher Zeit zum Vorschein gekommen, die zum
F.riedhof der verschollenen P.farrkirche S. P.ietro gehört hatten. Eine kleine, zwischen der
Torre Nera und der Torre Bianca gelegene, in F.undamentresten erhaltene K.apelle war dem
hl. M.ichael geweiht.
Eine weitere K.irche, vielleicht mit M.arienpatrozinium, ist als R.uine noch an der Peripherie
des westlichen Hofes zu erkennen. Sonst weist dieser Teil des Burgareals keine
sichtbaren Spuren einer Überbauung mehr auf, abgesehen von Teilen einer älteren
Ringmauer.
Auch im nördlichen Hof muss es Gebäude gegeben haben, wie an den noch erhaltenen
Teilen des Beringes ablesbar ist. In diesem Abschnitt scheint das Bedürfnis, eine
wenigstens als Brustwehr gestaltete Ringmauer zu bauen, wegen des natürlichen
Schutzes durch den lotrechten F.elsabsturz erst im 14/15. Jahrhundert verspürt worden
zu sein.
Die architektonische Neugestaltung des Castelgrande in den Jahren 1.9.8.2 bis 1.9.9.2 wurde
ermöglicht durch die grosszügige Schenkung von Mario delia Valle. AURELIO GALFEITI
ist dabei mit der historisch gewachsenen Silhouette der Anlage schonend umgegangen.
Der Südtrakt enthält M.useumsräume, in denen anhand der a.rchäologischen Befunde die
baugeschichtliche Entwicklung des Castelgrande gezeigt wird. Ausgestellt sind ferner die
D.eckenmalereien aus der C.asa G.hiringhelii (um 1470/80), ein eigener Raum ist der
M.ünzstätte von Bellinzona (16. Jahrhundert) gewidmet. Der westlich in rechtem Winkel
anstossende Trakt, im späten 19. Jahrhundert als Z.eughaus errichtet, dient seit seiner
völligen Umgestaltung um 1.9.9.0 als G.aststättenbetrieb.

Montmorency Falls
The Montmorency Falls (French: Chute Montmorency) is a large waterfall on the Montmorency River in Quebec, Canada. The falls are located on the boundary between the borough of Beauport, Quebec City, and Boischatel, about 12 km from the heart of old Quebec City. The area surrounding the falls is protected within the Montmorency Falls Park (French: Parc de la Chute-Montmorency).
The falls, at 84 meters (275 ft) high and 46 meters (150 ft) wide, are the highest in the province of Quebec and 30 meters (98 ft) higher than Niagara Falls. The basin at the foot of the falls is 17 meters (56 ft) deep. The falls are at the mouth of the Montmorency River where it drops over the cliff shore into the Saint Lawrence River, opposite the western end of the Île d'Orleans. The falls were given this name in 1613 by Samuel de Champlain. He named them in honour of Henri II, duc de Montmorency, who served as viceroy of New France from 1620 until 1625.
There are staircases that allow visitors to view the falls from several different perspectives. A suspension bridge over the crest of the falls provides access to both sides of the park as well as a spectacular view. There is also an aerial tram (Funitel) that carries passengers between the base and the top of the falls. In the summer the park hosts an international fireworks competition with the falls as a backdrop.
The remnants of earthen forts built by General Wolfe are located in the eastern portion of the park. They were constructed in 1759. The landings below Quebec City were repulsed by General Montcalm at Montmorency Falls, costing the British 440 soldiers. Ultimately a successful assault was launched when Wolfe made a surprise attack by climbing the cliffs below the Plains of Abraham.
The Falls were the site of a key scene between the lead actors in the 1947 film Whispering City, which was filmed on location.
The Ice Hotel was located at Montmorency Falls for its first year.
In his poem "Sleep and Poetry" (1816), John Keats says that human life is "a poor Indian's sleep / While his boat hastens to the monstrous steep / Of Montmorency." (Wikipedia)

Chute (s) Montmorency
La chute Montmorency (parfois chutes, au pluriel) est une chute d'eau située à l'embouchure de la rivière Montmorency, où celle-ci se déverse par le rivage en falaise dans le fleuve Saint-Laurent, vis-à-vis de l'extrémité ouest de l'Île d'Orléans. Elle est administrativement partagée entre la ville de Québec et la municipalité de Boischatel. La chute, d'une hauteur de 83 mètres, est la plus haute de la province du Québec et dépasse de trente mètres les chutes du Niagara. La profondeur du bassin au pied de la chute est de dix-sept mètres.
La chute est située à l'intérieur du Parc de la Chute-Montmorency, centre touristique géré par la SÉPAQ. Des escaliers (487 marches) permettent de l'observer sous différents angles. Un pont suspendu offrant un point de vue spectaculaire relie les deux côtés du parc. Il y a également un téléphérique qui transporte les visiteurs entre la base et le sommet de la chute. L'hiver, les vapeurs d'eau se solidifient en périphérie de la chute qui devient alors un site populaire d'escalade sur glace en plus de créer une importante masse de glace (le pain de sucre) devant la chute.

Le Pont de Montvert fut l'un des foyers les plus ardents du protestantisme dans les Cévennes, c'est de là que partit le soulèvement des Camisards le 24/7/1702, à la suite du meurtre de l'archiprêtre du Chayla. Guillaume de Grimoard, futur pape sous le nom d'Urbain V, naquit au château de Grizac en 1309.
La commune du Pont de Montvert s'étend sur une grande partie du versant sud du Mont Lozère et regroupe une quinzaine de hameaux. Le bourg, entouré de pentes verdoyantes, est niché à la confluence des vallées du Tarn, du Rieumalet et du Martinet. Comme enserré dans un écrin trop étroit, il s'étire de toutes parts vers la périphérie, où se construisent de nouveaux quartiers.

The Bridge Montvert was one of the most ardent home of Protestantism in
Cevennes, that's where the uprising started Camisards on 24.7.1702, the
Following the murder of Archpriest of Chayla. Grimoard of William, the future Pope
the name of Urban V, was born at Castle Grizac in 1309.
The town of Bridge Montvert extends over much of southern slope of Mount
Lozere and includes a dozen hamlets. The village, surrounded by slopes
green is nestled at the confluence of the Tarn valley, and the Rieumalet
Martinet. As contained in a box too narrow, it stretches to all sides
the periphery, which are building new neighborhoods.

Marrakech,مراكش, surnommée la Perle du Sud ou Porte du Sud et la Ville rouge ou Ville ocre, est une ville du Maroc, dans l'intérieur des terres, au pied des montagnes de l'Atlas.
La ville a été fondée en 1062 par Youssef Ibn Tachfin, roi de la dynastie berbère des Almoravides. Dans le passé, le Maroc était connu en Orient sous le nom de Marrakech (appellation toujours d'actualité en Iran) ; le nom Maroc provient lui-même de la déformation de la prononciation portugaise de Marrakech : Marrocos.
Marrakech compte environ 909 000 habitants (recensement de 2012) répartis sur une superficie de 230 km2. La densité de population atteint les 350 habitants à l’hectare dans la Médina. C'est la quatrième plus grande ville du Maroc après Casablanca, Fès et Meknès. La ville est divisée en deux parties distinctes : la Médina ou ville historique (dix kilomètres d'enceinte) et la ville nouvelle dont les quartiers principaux s'appellent Guéliz et Hivernage. Le Guéliz constitue aujourd'hui le centre-ville commercial. Il fut fondé par les Français lors du Protectorat. Le quartier de l'Hivernage concentre de nombreux complexes hôteliers. Depuis quelques années, la ville s'agrandit en périphérie, notamment à l'ouest avec l'apparition de nouveaux quartiers résidentiels comme pour la région de Targa ou l'extension de l'avenue Mohammed-VI, ou au nord Tamansourt.
Marrakech (nombre original en bereber tamurt n Akkuc, Tierra de Dios; en árabe, مراكش Marrākuš, pronunciado coloquialmente Mrrākeš; en castellano antiguo: Marruecos, escrito en grafía francesa Marraquech) es una de las ciudades más importantes de Marruecos, cuenta 1.545.541 habitantes y está al sur del país, al pie del Atlas, a 466 msnm de altura. Posee numerosos monumentos patrimonio de la Humanidad, lo que la convierten en el principal atractivo turístico del país.
Es, junto a Mequinez, Fez y Rabat, una de las cuatro ciudades imperiales de Marruecos.3 Fue fundada en 1062 por los almorávides y fue la capital del Imperio islámico. La ciudad posee el mercado tradicional (suq) más grande del país y una de las plazas más concurridas de África y del mundo, Djemaa el Fna.4 En la plaza se citan acróbatas, cuenta-cuentos, vendedores de agua, bailarines y músicos. Por la noche, la plaza se llena de puestos de comida, convirtiéndose en un gran restaurante al aire libre.
Marrakesh, or Marrakech (Berber: ⵎⵕⵕⴰⴽⵛ; Arabic: مراكش, Murrākuš) is a major city in the northwest African nation of Morocco. It is the fourth largest city in the country after Casablanca, Fes and Rabat, and is the capital of the mid-southwestern economic region of Marrakech-Tensift-El Haouz. Located to the north of the foothills of the snow-capped Atlas Mountains, by road Marrakesh is located 580 km (360 mi) southwest of Tangier, 327 km (203 mi) southwest of the Moroccan capital of Rabat, 239 km (149 mi) southwest of Casablanca, and 246 km (153 mi) northeast of Agadir.
Marrakesh is the most important of Morocco's four former imperial cities. Inhabited by Berber farmers from Neolithic times, the city was founded in 1062 by Abu Bakr ibn Umar, chieftain and cousin of Almoravid king Yusuf ibn Tashfin. In the 12th century, the Almoravids built many madrasas (Koranic schools) and mosques in Marrakesh that bear Andalusian influences. The red walls of the city, built by Ali ibn Yusuf in 1122-1123, and various buildings constructed in red sandstone during this period, have given the city the nickname of the "Red City" or "Ochre City". Marrakesh grew rapidly and established itself as a cultural, religious, and trading centre for the Maghreb and sub-Saharan Africa; Jemaa el-Fnaa is the busiest square in Africa. After a period of decline, the city was surpassed by Fes, but in the early 16th century, Marrakesh again became the capital of the kingdom. The city regained its preeminence under wealthy Saadian sultans Abu Abdallah al-Qaim and Ahmad al-Mansur, who embellished the city with sumptuous palaces such as the El Badi Palace (1578) and restored many ruined monuments. Beginning in the 17th century, the city became popular among Sufi pilgrims for Morocco's seven patron saints, who are entombed here. In 1912 the French Protectorate in Morocco was established and T'hami El Glaoui became Pasha of Marrakesh and held this position nearly throughout the duration of the protectorate until the role was dissolved upon independence of Morocco and the reestablishment of the monarchy in 1956. In 2009, Marrakesh mayor Fatima Zahra Mansouri became the second woman to be elected mayor in Morocco.
Like many Moroccan cities, Marrakesh comprises an old fortified city packed with vendors and their stalls (the medina), bordered by modern neighborhoods, the most prominent of which is Gueliz. Today it is one of the busiest cities in Africa and serves as a major economic centre and tourist destination. Tourism is strongly advocated by the reigning Moroccan monarch, Mohammed VI, with the goal of doubling the number of tourists visiting Morocco to 20 million by 2020. Despite the economic recession, real estate and hotel development in Marrakesh has grown dramatically in the 21st century. Marrakesh is particularly popular with the French, and numerous French celebrities own property in the city. Marrakesh has the largest traditional Berber market (souk) in Morocco, with some 18 souks selling wares ranging from traditional Berber carpets to modern consumer electronics. Crafts employ a significant percentage of the population, who primarily sell their products to tourists.
Marrakesh is served by Ménara International Airport and the Marrakesh railway station, which connects the city to Casablanca and northern Morocco. Marrakesh has several universities and schools, including Cadi Ayyad University. A number of Moroccan football clubs are located here, including Najm de Marrakech, KAC Marrakech, Mouloudia de Marrakech and Chez Ali Club de Marrakech. The Marrakesh Street Circuit hosts the World Touring Car Championship, Auto GP World Series and FIA Formula Two Championship races.

After a period of decline, the city was surpassed by Fes, but in the early 16th century, Marrakesh again became the capital of the kingdom. The city regained its preeminence under wealthy Saadian sultans Abu Abdallah al-Qaim and Ahmad al-Mansur, who embellished the city with sumptuous palaces such as the El Badi Palace (1578) and restored many ruined monuments. Beginning in the 17th century, the city became popular among Sufi pilgrims for Morocco's seven patron saints, who are entombed here. In 1912 the French Protectorate in Morocco was established and T'hami El Glaoui became Pasha of Marrakesh and held this position nearly throughout the duration of the protectorate until the role was dissolved upon independence of Morocco and the reestablishment of the monarchy in 1956. In 2009, Marrakesh mayor Fatima Zahra Mansouri became the second woman to be elected mayor in Morocco.
Like many Moroccan cities, Marrakesh comprises an old fortified city packed with vendors and their stalls (the medina), bordered by modern neighborhoods, the most prominent of which is Gueliz. Today it is one of the busiest cities in Africa and serves as a major economic centre and tourist destination. Tourism is strongly advocated by the reigning Moroccan monarch, Mohammed VI, with the goal of doubling the number of tourists visiting Morocco to 20 million by 2020. Despite the economic recession, real estate and hotel development in Marrakesh has grown dramatically in the 21st century. Marrakesh is particularly popular with the French, and numerous French celebrities own property in the city. Marrakesh has the largest traditional Berber market (souk) in Morocco, with some 18 souks selling wares ranging from traditional Berber carpets to modern consumer electronics. Crafts employ a significant percentage of the population, who primarily sell their products to tourists.
Marrakesh is served by Ménara International Airport and the Marrakesh railway station, which connects the city to Casablanca and northern Morocco. Marrakesh has several universities and schools, including Cadi Ayyad University. A number of Moroccan football clubs are located here, including Najm de Marrakech, KAC Marrakech, Mouloudia de Marrakech and Chez Ali Club de Marrakech. The Marrakesh Street Circuit hosts the World Touring Car Championship, Auto GP World Series and FIA Formula Two Championship races.
Marrakech,مراكش, surnommée la Perle du Sud ou Porte du Sud et la Ville rouge ou Ville ocre, est une ville du Maroc, dans l'intérieur des terres, au pied des montagnes de l'Atlas.
La ville a été fondée en 1062 par Youssef Ibn Tachfin, roi de la dynastie berbère des Almoravides. Dans le passé, le Maroc était connu en Orient sous le nom de Marrakech (appellation toujours d'actualité en Iran) ; le nom Maroc provient lui-même de la déformation de la prononciation portugaise de Marrakech : Marrocos.
Marrakech compte environ 909 000 habitants (recensement de 2012) répartis sur une superficie de 230 km2. La densité de population atteint les 350 habitants à l’hectare dans la Médina. C'est la quatrième plus grande ville du Maroc après Casablanca, Fès et Meknès. La ville est divisée en deux parties distinctes : la Médina ou ville historique (dix kilomètres d'enceinte) et la ville nouvelle dont les quartiers principaux s'appellent Guéliz et Hivernage. Le Guéliz constitue aujourd'hui le centre-ville commercial. Il fut fondé par les Français lors du Protectorat. Le quartier de l'Hivernage concentre de nombreux complexes hôteliers. Depuis quelques années, la ville s'agrandit en périphérie, notamment à l'ouest avec l'apparition de nouveaux quartiers résidentiels comme pour la région de Targa ou l'extension de l'avenue Mohammed-VI, ou au nord Tamansourt.

Marrakesh, or Marrakech (Berber: ⵎⵕⵕⴰⴽⵛ; Arabic: مراكش, Murrākuš) is a major city in the northwest African nation of Morocco. It is the fourth largest city in the country after Casablanca, Fes and Rabat, and is the capital of the mid-southwestern economic region of Marrakech-Tensift-El Haouz. Located to the north of the foothills of the snow-capped Atlas Mountains, by road Marrakesh is located 580 km (360 mi) southwest of Tangier, 327 km (203 mi) southwest of the Moroccan capital of Rabat, 239 km (149 mi) southwest of Casablanca, and 246 km (153 mi) northeast of Agadir.
Marrakesh is the most important of Morocco's four former imperial cities. Inhabited by Berber farmers from Neolithic times, the city was founded in 1062 by Abu Bakr ibn Umar, chieftain and cousin of Almoravid king Yusuf ibn Tashfin. In the 12th century, the Almoravids built many madrasas (Koranic schools) and mosques in Marrakesh that bear Andalusian influences.

Quand ils ne sont pas là, nous nous limitons près de la grande route pour éviter d’être la cible d’attaques», confie une maraîchère. Photo MONUSCO / Marc Maro Fimbo
Beni, North Kivu, DR Congo - Peacekeepers from the Tanzanian contingent of MONUSCO accompany market gardeners in their farming activities in the Nzuma neighbourhood on the outskirts of the town of Beni, where they are sometimes victims of armed attacks. "With the presence of the peacekeepers, we can go further into the bush to cultivate new land. When they are not there, we limit ourselves to the main road to avoid being the target of attacks," says a market gardener. Photo MONUSCO / Marc Maro Fimbo

De ses habitants.
# Les pêcheurs du lac , de véritable acrobates sur leurs pirogues pour de maigres pêches.
# La vie du lac, les habitants sont souvent à la périphérie de ses eaux calmes, les habitations sont très sommaires et sur pilotis pour éviter les inondations lors des saisons Des pluies. La vie est très liée au lac, jardins et marchés flottants, pêche déplacement
Uniquement en barques ou pirogues et ceci dés le plus jeune age.
# Ici Le lac Inle est un lac d'eau douce situé dans les montagnes de l'État shan, dans l'Est de la Birmanie. C'est une destination touristique majeure du pays, donc c'est le second plus grand lac, avec une surface estimée de 12 000 hectares, et un des plus hauts, à 884 m. Sa profondeur moyenne n'est que de 2,10 m à la saison sèche (profondeur maximale : 3,60 m) mais elle peut dépasser 4 m à la saison des pluies.
Les transports sur le lac se font par bateau, soit pirogues traditionnelles, soit à moteur. Les pêcheurs rament d'une façon unique, debout sur une jambe à la poupe et l'autre enroulée autour de la godille. Ceci leur permet de voir au-dessus des plantes qui couvrent une grande partie du lac (cependant les femmes rament de la manière courante, à la main, assises les jambes croisées à la poupe).

# Here Inle Lake is a freshwater lake located in the mountains of Shan State, eastern Burma. It is a major tourist destination in the country, so it is the second largest lake, with an estimated area of 12,000 hectares, and one of the highest, at 884 m. Its average depth is only 2.10 m in the dry season (maximum depth: 3.60 m) but it can exceed 4 m in the rainy season.
Transport on the lake is by boat, either traditional canoes or motor. Fishermen row in a unique way, standing on one leg at the stern and the other wrapped around the scull. This allows them to see above the plants which cover a large part of the lake (however the women row in the current manner, by hand, sitting cross-legged at the stern).

Marrakesh, or Marrakech (Berber: ⵎⵕⵕⴰⴽⵛ; Arabic: مراكش, Murrākuš) is a major city in the northwest African nation of Morocco. It is the fourth largest city in the country after Casablanca, Fes and Rabat, and is the capital of the mid-southwestern economic region of Marrakech-Tensift-El Haouz. Located to the north of the foothills of the snow-capped Atlas Mountains, by road Marrakesh is located 580 km (360 mi) southwest of Tangier, 327 km (203 mi) southwest of the Moroccan capital of Rabat, 239 km (149 mi) southwest of Casablanca, and 246 km (153 mi) northeast of Agadir.
Marrakesh is the most important of Morocco's four former imperial cities. Inhabited by Berber farmers from Neolithic times, the city was founded in 1062 by Abu Bakr ibn Umar, chieftain and cousin of Almoravid king Yusuf ibn Tashfin. In the 12th century, the Almoravids built many madrasas (Koranic schools) and mosques in Marrakesh that bear Andalusian influences. The red walls of the city, built by Ali ibn Yusuf in 1122-1123, and various buildings constructed in red sandstone during this period, have given the city the nickname of the "Red City" or "Ochre City". Marrakesh grew rapidly and established itself as a cultural, religious, and trading centre for the Maghreb and sub-Saharan Africa; Jemaa el-Fnaa is the busiest square in Africa. After a period of decline, the city was surpassed by Fes, but in the early 16th century, Marrakesh again became the capital of the kingdom. The city regained its preeminence under wealthy Saadian sultans Abu Abdallah al-Qaim and Ahmad al-Mansur, who embellished the city with sumptuous palaces such as the El Badi Palace (1578) and restored many ruined monuments. Beginning in the 17th century, the city became popular among Sufi pilgrims for Morocco's seven patron saints, who are entombed here. In 1912 the French Protectorate in Morocco was established and T'hami El Glaoui became Pasha of Marrakesh and held this position nearly throughout the duration of the protectorate until the role was dissolved upon independence of Morocco and the reestablishment of the monarchy in 1956. In 2009, Marrakesh mayor Fatima Zahra Mansouri became the second woman to be elected mayor in Morocco.
Like many Moroccan cities, Marrakesh comprises an old fortified city packed with vendors and their stalls (the medina), bordered by modern neighborhoods, the most prominent of which is Gueliz. Today it is one of the busiest cities in Africa and serves as a major economic centre and tourist destination. Tourism is strongly advocated by the reigning Moroccan monarch, Mohammed VI, with the goal of doubling the number of tourists visiting Morocco to 20 million by 2020. Despite the economic recession, real estate and hotel development in Marrakesh has grown dramatically in the 21st century. Marrakesh is particularly popular with the French, and numerous French celebrities own property in the city. Marrakesh has the largest traditional Berber market (souk) in Morocco, with some 18 souks selling wares ranging from traditional Berber carpets to modern consumer electronics. Crafts employ a significant percentage of the population, who primarily sell their products to tourists.
Marrakesh is served by Ménara International Airport and the Marrakesh railway station, which connects the city to Casablanca and northern Morocco. Marrakesh has several universities and schools, including Cadi Ayyad University. A number of Moroccan football clubs are located here, including Najm de Marrakech, KAC Marrakech, Mouloudia de Marrakech and Chez Ali Club de Marrakech. The Marrakesh Street Circuit hosts the World Touring Car Championship, Auto GP World Series and FIA Formula Two Championship races.
Marrakech,مراكش, surnommée la Perle du Sud ou Porte du Sud et la Ville rouge ou Ville ocre, est une ville du Maroc, dans l'intérieur des terres, au pied des montagnes de l'Atlas.
La ville a été fondée en 1062 par Youssef Ibn Tachfin, roi de la dynastie berbère des Almoravides. Dans le passé, le Maroc était connu en Orient sous le nom de Marrakech (appellation toujours d'actualité en Iran) ; le nom Maroc provient lui-même de la déformation de la prononciation portugaise de Marrakech : Marrocos.
Marrakech compte environ 909 000 habitants (recensement de 2012) répartis sur une superficie de 230 km2. La densité de population atteint les 350 habitants à l’hectare dans la Médina. C'est la quatrième plus grande ville du Maroc après Casablanca, Fès et Meknès. La ville est divisée en deux parties distinctes : la Médina ou ville historique (dix kilomètres d'enceinte) et la ville nouvelle dont les quartiers principaux s'appellent Guéliz et Hivernage. Le Guéliz constitue aujourd'hui le centre-ville commercial. Il fut fondé par les Français lors du Protectorat. Le quartier de l'Hivernage concentre de nombreux complexes hôteliers. Depuis quelques années, la ville s'agrandit en périphérie, notamment à l'ouest avec l'apparition de nouveaux quartiers résidentiels comme pour la région de Targa ou l'extension de l'avenue Mohammed-VI, ou au nord Tamansourt.

The city regained its preeminence under wealthy Saadian sultans Abu Abdallah al-Qaim and Ahmad al-Mansur, who embellished the city with sumptuous palaces such as the El Badi Palace (1578) and restored many ruined monuments. Beginning in the 17th century, the city became popular among Sufi pilgrims for Morocco's seven patron saints, who are entombed here. In 1912 the French Protectorate in Morocco was established and T'hami El Glaoui became Pasha of Marrakesh and held this position nearly throughout the duration of the protectorate until the role was dissolved upon independence of Morocco and the reestablishment of the monarchy in 1956. In 2009, Marrakesh mayor Fatima Zahra Mansouri became the second woman to be elected mayor in Morocco.
Like many Moroccan cities, Marrakesh comprises an old fortified city packed with vendors and their stalls (the medina), bordered by modern neighborhoods, the most prominent of which is Gueliz. Today it is one of the busiest cities in Africa and serves as a major economic centre and tourist destination. Tourism is strongly advocated by the reigning Moroccan monarch, Mohammed VI, with the goal of doubling the number of tourists visiting Morocco to 20 million by 2020. Despite the economic recession, real estate and hotel development in Marrakesh has grown dramatically in the 21st century. Marrakesh is particularly popular with the French, and numerous French celebrities own property in the city. Marrakesh has the largest traditional Berber market (souk) in Morocco, with some 18 souks selling wares ranging from traditional Berber carpets to modern consumer electronics. Crafts employ a significant percentage of the population, who primarily sell their products to tourists.
Marrakesh is served by Ménara International Airport and the Marrakesh railway station, which connects the city to Casablanca and northern Morocco. Marrakesh has several universities and schools, including Cadi Ayyad University. A number of Moroccan football clubs are located here, including Najm de Marrakech, KAC Marrakech, Mouloudia de Marrakech and Chez Ali Club de Marrakech. The Marrakesh Street Circuit hosts the World Touring Car Championship, Auto GP World Series and FIA Formula Two Championship races.
Marrakech,مراكش, surnommée la Perle du Sud ou Porte du Sud et la Ville rouge ou Ville ocre, est une ville du Maroc, dans l'intérieur des terres, au pied des montagnes de l'Atlas.
La ville a été fondée en 1062 par Youssef Ibn Tachfin, roi de la dynastie berbère des Almoravides. Dans le passé, le Maroc était connu en Orient sous le nom de Marrakech (appellation toujours d'actualité en Iran) ; le nom Maroc provient lui-même de la déformation de la prononciation portugaise de Marrakech : Marrocos.
Marrakech compte environ 909 000 habitants (recensement de 2012) répartis sur une superficie de 230 km2. La densité de population atteint les 350 habitants à l’hectare dans la Médina. C'est la quatrième plus grande ville du Maroc après Casablanca, Fès et Meknès. La ville est divisée en deux parties distinctes : la Médina ou ville historique (dix kilomètres d'enceinte) et la ville nouvelle dont les quartiers principaux s'appellent Guéliz et Hivernage. Le Guéliz constitue aujourd'hui le centre-ville commercial. Il fut fondé par les Français lors du Protectorat. Le quartier de l'Hivernage concentre de nombreux complexes hôteliers. Depuis quelques années, la ville s'agrandit en périphérie, notamment à l'ouest avec l'apparition de nouveaux quartiers résidentiels comme pour la région de Targa ou l'extension de l'avenue Mohammed-VI, ou au nord Tamansourt.

Marrakesh, or Marrakech (Berber: ⵎⵕⵕⴰⴽⵛ; Arabic: مراكش, Murrākuš) is a major city in the northwest African nation of Morocco. It is the fourth largest city in the country after Casablanca, Fes and Rabat, and is the capital of the mid-southwestern economic region of Marrakech-Tensift-El Haouz. Located to the north of the foothills of the snow-capped Atlas Mountains, by road Marrakesh is located 580 km (360 mi) southwest of Tangier, 327 km (203 mi) southwest of the Moroccan capital of Rabat, 239 km (149 mi) southwest of Casablanca, and 246 km (153 mi) northeast of Agadir.
Marrakesh is the most important of Morocco's four former imperial cities. Inhabited by Berber farmers from Neolithic times, the city was founded in 1062 by Abu Bakr ibn Umar, chieftain and cousin of Almoravid king Yusuf ibn Tashfin. In the 12th century, the Almoravids built many madrasas (Koranic schools) and mosques in Marrakesh that bear Andalusian influences. The red walls of the city, built by Ali ibn Yusuf in 1122-1123, and various buildings constructed in red sandstone during this period, have given the city the nickname of the "Red City" or "Ochre City". Marrakesh grew rapidly and established itself as a cultural, religious, and trading centre for the Maghreb and sub-Saharan Africa; Jemaa el-Fnaa is the busiest square in Africa. After a period of decline, the city was surpassed by Fes, but in the early 16th century, Marrakesh again became the capital of the kingdom. The city regained its preeminence under wealthy Saadian sultans Abu Abdallah al-Qaim and Ahmad al-Mansur, who embellished the city with sumptuous palaces such as the El Badi Palace (1578) and restored many ruined monuments. Beginning in the 17th century, the city became popular among Sufi pilgrims for Morocco's seven patron saints, who are entombed here. In 1912 the French Protectorate in Morocco was established and T'hami El Glaoui became Pasha of Marrakesh and held this position nearly throughout the duration of the protectorate until the role was dissolved upon independence of Morocco and the reestablishment of the monarchy in 1956. In 2009, Marrakesh mayor Fatima Zahra Mansouri became the second woman to be elected mayor in Morocco.
