Marrakech

At the foot of the Atlas Mountains and a few hours from the Sahara, Marrakech is one of biggest and most beautiful cities in Morocco. A city of tranquility and throbbing intensity. The city’s red dried mud walls rise from the red earth, glowing in the late afternoon sun ; the vast souks, the best in Morocco, are filled with browsing customers ; the drums of the Jamaa el Fna, the central square, summon crowds to a daily circus of fortune tellers, musicians, story-tellers, snake charmers and food vendors. visitors to this city can walk to the edge of the medina and find peaceful gardens, palmeries and olive groves stretching to the snow-capped Atlas Mountain peaks in the distance.
