Morocco Guide

Things not to miss

    1 Majorelle Gardens, Marrakesh • A lovely, mature botanical garden, maintained by Yves Saint Laurent.

    2 Fes • The most complete medieval city in the Arab world, Fes's labyrinthine streets hide away monuments and medersas (Islamic colleges), such as the Bou Inania Medersa.

    3 Koutoubia Mosque, Marrakesh • The symbol of Marrakesh, the Koutoubia's twelfth-century minaret is visible for miles around the city.

    4 Tangier • The old "International Port", sometime home of Bowles and Burroughs, has a seedy charm of its own.

    5 Djemaa el Fna, Marrakesh • Musicians, acrobats and storytellers converge each night on the city's great square.
