"Marrakech" a Marrakesh Travel Page by lucyt

I've put off writing my intro page to Marrakech for quite some time now.
So here goes.

My Marrakech is not, and never will be, the same as your Marrakech. Other cities offer a one experience fits all approach to life but not so Marrakech. And it's by far the better for it.

My Marrakech, the Marrakech I carry with me whilst walking the dog on rainswept moors, is a city of infinite contrasts. A city of baking heat and many smells - admittedly some nicer than others. A city of dark alley with sudden patches of blinding light. A city of passion, of belief held deep in the bones. Moment to moment it can vasilate from the vulgar to the delicate to the serene.

I love the way the alleys are relatively undistinguished and yet inside the architeture is sublime.

I love the fact that I will never really understand this place.
