Our guide to Marrakech, the Red City
At the heart of the Medina is the famous Djemma el Fna square, thronging with locals and visitors. Immerse yourself in the lively atmosphere, where by day, you will find stalls selling fresh orange juice, snake charmers, Berber ladies painting intricate henna designs, storytellers, water sellers and the occasional acrobat; and by night, the smoking food stalls are crammed with hungry customers feasting on tasty tajines, sizzling kebabs and sipping steaming glasses of sweet mint tea.
At the end of a busy afternoon, retreat to your riad’s roof terrace, or laze by the pool of your private catered villa, and soak up some glorious sunshine, listen to the birdsong and take in the magnificent views of the soaring storks and the distant snow-capped Atlas Mountains. Spending time in Marrakech, also gives you a chance to try out authentic experiences, such as a traditional Moroccan cookery class, an invigorating hammam with a black soap scrub, followed by a massage, or even a lesson in the art of calligraphy.
With its mosques, minarets, extravagant palaces and fascinating souks, Marrakech has always had a strong traditional side. Now, with the help of some new hip boutiques, contemporary art galleries, swish restaurants and bars springing up all over place, it’s emerged as a rather trendy travel destination – a stay in Marrakech will always be memorable!
