MARRAKECH

Known as the Red City from the color of the old city walls, Marrakech is one of the world’s most atmospheric cities.  Jemaa El-Fnaa Square is probably the busiest square in all of Africa, adjacent to the Medina, filled with fire-eaters, belly-dancers, snake charmers, acrobats and what can seem like hundreds of other kinds of street entertainers, all competing for attention from the crowds.  The adjacent souks offer merchandise of every variety imaginable.   There are architectural marvels around every corner: intricately carved archways, ornate mosques, exotic gardens.  Marrakech’s location, at the edqe of the Saharan desert and the high Atlas mountains (often snowcapped) only adds to the alure.
