Magical Marrakesh

Djemaa El Fna
A few days only in Marrakesh was enough for the magic of this city to grab me. On first sight in the morning the Djemaa El Fna does look a bit like a giant car park. After a few minutes walking through the stalls, dodging getting hit by motorcycles, the sounds & smells got to me. Followed this by a stroll into the souks & I was truly enchanted by the city. Those experiences were even more intense after dark.

As predicted by some guide books & fellow travellers you can get hassled by people selling almost everything. A polite but firm no & they leave you alone, at no time did I feel threatened. They are only trying to make a living after all.

Pros:"Sights, Sounds & Smells come alive here."
Cons:"Not all the smells in the souks are pleasant ones"
