About Marrakech

Aan de voet van het Atlasgebergte staat Marrakesh met zijn rode muren bekend om de doolhofachtige medina, het levendige plein en rustige riads en tuinen.

Jemaa el-Fnaa, het grote plein in het centrum van de medina, verandert door de dag van karakter: van sapverkopers en slangenbezweerders 's ochtends tot eetkraampjes in de rook en muzikanten na het donker. De minaret van de Koutoubia-moskee verrijst vlakbij als het baken van de stad, en de soeks strekken zich naar het noorden uit in een wirwar van steegjes met leer, lantaarns, tapijten en specerijen.

Top-ranked sights in Marrakech: Atlas Mountains, Tizi-n'Tichka Pass, Jemaa el-Fna (Djemaa el-Fna).
