Marrakesh

While in Marrakech Morocco’s imperial city, one’s stay starts with a stop in Jamaa El fna square, ranked by the UNESCO as a world’s heritage site where one can take time to stroll amongst storey tellers, dancers, snake charmers and watermen before venturing into the labyrinth of the narrow alleys and souks of the old medina, surrounded by kilometres of ochre colour city walls.

One is strongly encouraged to visit the city’s historical landmarks such as the Menara, the koutoubia Mosque or the luxurious riads and guesthouses which are old palaces or houses that have been revamped in the form of one thousand and one nights.

The countryside abounds with stunning natural scenery that is also a must see place.

Lastly, one can find a guaranteed relaxation in the hammams before hitting the city’s trendiest pubs and night clubs for a memorable night.
