It's only in spanish so far but I'll translate it soon ;-))

Mederssa Ben Youssef Review

<BR><font color=red size=+1>MEDERSSA BEN YOUSSOUF</font><BR>
At the end of the main street of the souks, just after you pass all the shops (Baroudienne Street). This former islamic school is now open to the public. Here you can not only admire the wonderful architecture and wooden ceilings, but see the way the pupils lived in those tiny little cells.<BR>
Entrance 20 Dh.<BR>
At the nearby <b>Marrakesh Museum</b> you can see some modern moroccan art, have a tea in the terrace and rest, or buy some books at the book shop.

Souks Review

<BR><font color=red size=+1>THE SOUKS</font><BR>
This huge popular shopping center is a real must, even if you don't intend to buy anything (though if you enter, you'll end up buying!). You can start heading north from Djema el Fnaa, through the Souk Semmarine Street. There are plans of the souks, but <font color=red>you'll get lost anyway</font>, so just wander around, and when you feel hungry, ask someone for the Djema el Fnaa Square or just take a taxi!!

El Bahia Palace Review

<BR><font color=red size=+1>'LA BAHIA' PALACE</font><BR>
Street Riad Zitoun el Kedim. There are no big signals outside, just follow the tourists, you can enter through a big wooden door left from the Bahia Restaurant.It closes early at noon (11:45) and opens again at 14:30.<BR>
One of the nicest palaces, this small building hides wonderful wooden patios and rooms, though the gardens are not impressive.

La Menara Gardens & Bassin Menara Gardens Review

<BR><font color=red size=+1>LA MENARA</font><BR>
This huge bassin is a bit out of town, some 4 kms west of Djema el Fnaa through the gate next to Mamounia Hotel. A nice walk if it's not too hot. Bus 11 takes you there from the Koutubia too.<BR>
Free entrance, a pleasant place to have <font color=red>a walk in the evenings to see the sunset</font>. You can feed the fishes that live there, bring some bread.

El Badi Palace Review

<BR><font color=red size=+1>PALACE EL BADI</font><BR>
You can enter this old palace from the Ferblantiers Square. Entrance 10 Dh. This old palace is <font color=red>only ruins of brick walls</font>, so unless you have plenty of time, is much better to see the nearby 'La Bahia' palace. The only interesting thing there is the mosque tower, but you'll have to pay extra to visit it.

VALLE DU DRAA
From Ouarzazate...

<BR><font color=red size=+1>VALLE DU DRAA</font><BR>
From Ouarzazate to Zagora goes this nice valley full of Palm trees. The road is <font color=red>fully paved</font>, though a bit narrow.<BR>
The first hour from Ouarzazate (till Agdz) is a bit monotonous, dry landscape, and almost no traffic. After Agdz you enter the palm woods, and there are more little towns on the way.
