old kasbah 
  Destroyed by the earthquake of 1960, the kasbah has not kept its crenellated ramparts. However, this elevated site has a complete view of the bay, the harbor and the new city. Enchanting at sunset when the lights become golden brown.

New Medina
 
Just south of downtown, a place to discover with delight: the new reconstructed from the 90s by Italian architect Coco Polizzi Medina. Careful urban development, craftsmen and restaurants. A great success, bold and original, where the Moroccan soul still remains. The jewelry souk and the Moorish café are worth more than a visit.

Marrakech the red city

Square of Jemaa El Fna 
   Marrakech is one of the destinations that do more than ever dream ... even if his old lovers swear not recognize today their "Pearl of the South." This changing city cannot be ignored.

   A steady stream of visitors, stalls full of junk; a periphery changing with the construction of dozens of hotels and palaces promising total dream; the creation of a new city on the road to Safi, 7 miles away; a mégastade, the first in the kingdom, in preparation for the African Football Cup held in Morocco in 2015 ... So many things that tend to make Marrakech a city scarred by tourism ... And yet, open your eyes, let yourself be carried away by the colors, the smells, the undeniable charm of Marrakech, this bewitching and fascinating city! 

   The huge Jemaa El Fna and agitation (day and night!) Alone are worth the trip. It is also lost in the colorful traditional markets called (souks) and noisy, probably the richest, most diverse, the most fascinating countries. Thousand small businesses are everywhere. Tourism, often maligned, has greatly promoted the rediscovery of a flourishing craft today, and the rehabilitation of Marrakech architecture.Hammams neighborhood glibness sellers of everything and nothing added to the thrill of an unforgettable spell.

   To understand and appreciate Marrakech, we have to stay a bit. So this imperial city appears like a jewel set in the natural setting that is not far, the High Atlas Mountains.
