The minaret of the Koutoubia mosque is the most obvious landmark of the city, sharing the bill with other attractions such as the Museum of Marrakech Saadian Tombs and Dar Si Said Museum.

The Sahara

After the vast frozen wasteland of Antarctica, the Sahara desert is the second largest in terms of area (good luck imagine the scale of something like 9,000,000 square kilometers), and it fits easily in terms of his own majesty. Due to the size of the Sahara, it shares borders with many countries - including Morocco.

If you are in the countries studied abroad, there is much to discover in the desert - including exploration 4WD, camel trekking group, or stay in one of the desert camps at the border Moroccan. An important caveat: you have to respect the power of the desert. It can be fatal for the unprepared and the emphasis on the importance of consultation with an expert guide before venturing into the wide open space of the desert can not be overstated. Exploration held in 4WD vehicles, equipped with navigation tools on board, will ensure your safety.

Essaouira

Located less than 200 km of two (Marrakech) and Agadir, Essaouira is the perfect location for students studying abroad to study. Why visit Essaouira? Her beauty is legendary and its medina with its whitewashed walls of red sandstone is not listed as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO for nothing.

The city retains a strong Andalusian and Portuguese heritage, which is the most delightfully apparent when you visit restaurants around the busy fishing port. The tasty local cuisine is based mainly on fresh catch seafood of the day.

Of great interest to students are the local festivals, featuring Andalusian culture and Gnawa music. It is also a pleasure to explore the passages and alleys throughout the medina. As for recreational activities, the options vary - kite and windsurfing, quad, or you can just sit and watch the sunset behind the purple scenic islands.
