Best Things to Do in Marrakech
The major attraction here is the city itself. Marrakech's vibrant colors, spicy tastes, exotic smells, indecipherable sounds, and inimitable feel will linger in your memory long after you leave its corridors. Plan to spend most of your time in or around the Medina, Marrakech's fortified old city. Marvel at the ancient rust-colored buildings and intricate mosaics that decorate this neighborhood before testing your haggling skills in the Djemaa el Fna marketplace. Then take respite from the raucous atmosphere in the majestic El Badi Palace or soothe your travel-weary body at one of the hundreds of traditional hammams scattered throughout the city.
