Marrakech, the beautiful city of the Arabian Nights, is in addition to a mythical and sensual, a great tourist destination for this summer. It is one of the most visited cities around the Moroccan empire and the most exotic and cosmopolitan cities around the world.
Formerly Marrakech prospered by its successful trans-Saharan trade, much of it is currently still a center for business and commerce very important, however the beauty of its streets, its souks and delicious cuisine Arab enchant the visitors.
A benchmark is the Jemaa el Fna, famous for concentrating the acrobats, the fortunes casters and snake charmers. Definitely a place you should know.
Culturally and historically is a gem, in fact has been declared “World Heritage” by UNESCO and it is certainly a guarantee that your visit will be unforgettable. In addition to numerous historical and religious monuments, is a city with hotels and riads, which are traditional houses or palaces of Morocco, most luxurious in the world.
Some of the cultural treasures that I recommend are the Amninar of the Koutoubia, with its elegant green and white ceramic. Other sights not to be missed are the Menara Ben Yussef and where you can find the most beautiful gardens full of fruit trees and olive trees and a beautiful lake, you will feel like in an exotic Arabian tale.
The palaces of Badi and Bahia are also must-sees, but also many tourists often include in their tour of one very modern palace: the Mamounia, one of the most luxurious hotels in the world that you can visit without being a guest. The geographical location of the city allows visitors to enjoy the Atlantic Coast of the High Atlas Mountains and the proximity of two other important cities such as Casablanca and Rabat.
Travelling in Morocco is much simpler if you have your own car but use public transport in the country is also a good option especially if you intend to get closer to the Moroccan community. The most popular tours departing from Marrakech are the palm trees, one of the most impressive natural landscapes across Morocco, the High Atlas and the neighboring villages as Tameslouht, Amizmiz or Asni and Ourika Valley.
As a final recommendation can’t miss a day of shopping in the souk, which are markets that extend along the streets around the main squares of the city. You’ll find all kinds of crafts, spices, leather, perfumes, textiles and much more, just come and enjoy left Moroccan art.
