The red city near the Sahara

by SirRichard - last update: Apr 20, 2003

Oranges at Djema El Fnaa
Some people say that Fez is the nicest city in Morocco. For me is Marrakesh! Maybe the architecture and buildings is better in Fez, but Marrakesh is not only its red buildings and walls, Marrakesh is the soul of the desert, the gate of the beaches (Agadir, Essaouira), guardian of the Atlas snowy mountains... I think it resumes Morocco in just one place...
I've been there 4 times... and wouldn't mind going back again!!
