Marrakech is best known for its impressive architecture and lively atmosphere. The city is one of the four famous royal cities of Morocco and lies at the foot of the High Atlas. Here you really lack the eyes to grasp everything. The market on the Djemaa el Fna, the central square of the city and one of the most important points of Marrakech, is bustling and a gathering place for vendors, street performers and gastronomy. The city's culinary side is delicious, with the leading Moroccan cuisine as its flagship. The pleasant weather allows people to enjoy the sun from the roof terrace. Or let yourself be pampered in the Moroccan hammam. The versatility combined with the authenticity of Marrakech makes this city an exciting and beautiful destination that never fails to surprise travellers.
