The Red City
Marrakech, also known as the 'Red City,' owes its nickname to the blush-colored walls that envelop it. Constructed in the 12th century, the bricks are crafted from tabia, a mixture of red mud and water from the Hazou plains. However, those who have explored the city know that its allure extends far beyond the red walls, as Marrakech unfolds in a kaleidoscope of vibrant colors.

Jemaa el-Fna
The essence of Marrakech's diverse hues comes to life in its bustling souks. Bright spices form colorful pyramids, freshly-dyed carpets drape from stall sides, and silver lamps sparkle with the promise of genies within. Jemaa el-Fna, Africa's largest square, mirrors this vibrant atmosphere. Ten times busier than Piccadilly Circus during rush hour, the marketplace is a lively spectacle, teeming with storytellers and potion sellers.

Royal Gardens
Beyond the lively medina, Marrakech reveals a verdant side. The region surrounding the city is adorned with gardens that transcend the ordinary. The Menara gardens, constructed by royalty in the 12th century, and the Jardin Majorelle, once owned by fashion designer Yves Saint Laurent until 2008, showcase the city's lush and royal greenery.
