Rutt

1. Essaouira formerly known as Mogador, is a city in the western Moroccan economic region of Marrakesh-Safi, on the Atlantic coast. The modern name means "the little rampart", a reference to the fortress walls that still enclose part of the city.

2. Essaouira is protected by a natural bay partially shielded from wave action by the Iles Purpuraires. A broad sandy beach extends from the harbour south of Essaourira, at which point the Oued Ksob discharges to the ocean; south of the discharge lies the archaeological ruin, the Bordj El Berod.

3. The Medina of Essaouira (formerly "Mogador") is a UNESCO World Heritage listed city, an example of a late 18th-century fortified town, as transferred to North Africa by European colonists. Major problems currently are deterioration of the extensive ramparts around the Medina; and widespread violation of laws against motorized vehicles (primarily mopeds) within the Medina.

About Marrakech

Vid foten av Atlasbergen är rödmurade Marrakech känt för sin labyrintlika medina, livliga stora torg och fridfulla riads och trädgårdar.

Jemaa el-Fnaa, det stora torget i medinans mitt, byter karaktär under dagen, från juicesäljare och ormtjusare på morgonen till rökiga matstånd och musikanter efter mörkrets inbrott. Koutoubiamoskéns minaret reser sig i närheten som stadens landmärke, och soukerna breder ut sig norrut i ett virrvarr av gränder som säljer läder, lyktor, mattor och kryddor.
