Marrakech and its surroundings
There is a lot to see and experience in Marrakech. There's the old city/medina and the new city of Gueliz and Hivernage, as well as the beautiful surroundings of Marrakech.
In the Medina
- It's pleasant to stroll (with or without a guide) through the souks and soak up the very special atmosphere. There are lovely little shops. (pottery, decorations, leather goods, silverware, woodwork, textiles...)
- The Spice Terrace. A small gallery of shops in the souks with a pleasant rooftop terrace.
