About Marrakech

A los pies del Atlas, Marrakech, de murallas rojas, es famosa por su medina laberíntica, su animada plaza principal, sus riads y sus jardines.

Jemaa el-Fna, la gran plaza en el centro de la medina, cambia de carácter a lo largo del día: de vendedores de zumo y encantadores de serpientes por la mañana a puestos de comida envueltos en humo y músicos al caer la noche. El minarete de la mezquita Kutubía se alza cerca como emblema de la ciudad, y los zocos se extienden al norte en un laberinto de callejones donde se vende cuero, linternas, alfombras y especias.
