A mesmerising medina, vivid souks, and the gateway to the Sahara — a complete sensory overload.
Marrakech is a feast for all senses — Djemaa el-Fna square is the world's greatest living folk theatre: acrobats, snake charmers, henna artists, and hundreds of food stalls fill it every evening. The labyrinthine lanes of the Medina, colourful souks (markets), palace hotels (riads), and the nearby Atlas Mountains make Marrakech a unique sensory blend.
Best time to visit
