Hot, Red and very Smelly! | Dye Pits, Marrakech (pwwooor!) |
Spent 8 days in Morocco - a few days in Marrakech then the remainder in the Atlas Mountains (See my new Aremd Page). Don't worry, most of the smells are quite nice! It is part of the Marrakech experience. And smells do not come across in pictures. Expect a mixture of dust, donkey s**t, fruits and spices, moped fumes... I guess in about three days you could see most of the main tourist sights of the city. But the area within the red city walls is deceptively large and you will get footsore. Especially finding your way around the maze of covered souks and bazaars! Remember it gets verrry hot here and things slow down in the middle of the day. You will not want to be running around trying to see everything in this heat!! |

| Pros: | "Busy, Colourful, Smelly and Exotic, Good Value" | | Cons: | "Hot. Many con-tricks. Easy to get lost. No loo paper ever!" | | In A Nutshell: | "An exciting, colourful introduction to Morocco's Africa" |
