  • Favorite Thing: In the late afternoon we could sit for hours on the roof of a cafe at the Djemaa el-Fna, waiting for the dusk and the lights at the square.
    After a long rest at the rooftop of the cafe we went down, back in the crowd on the square, to experience the streetlife again.

    Fondest Memory: Having a drink on a rooftop of a cafe at the Djemaa el-Fna and see the sunset with the silhouette of the Koutoubia Mosque in front.

    Street Scenes: Bicycles in the medina

  • Fondest Memory: In the medina in the alley of Dar Si Said I saw these bicycles. I liked the scene with its colours.
    I think biking is a good way of transportation in Marrakech, for visiting the Menara gardens and the Ville Nouvelle for example.
    In many budget hotels in the medina it's possible to hire bikes. Our hotel in the Ville Nouvelle in 2000 didn't, so we walked a lot.
    It was nice too.
