01 Overview

Marrakech is a city that operates on a different frequency. The Djemaa el-Fna square transforms at dusk from a sun-bleached plaza into a carnival of storytellers, snake charmers, and food stalls. The souks behind it sell everything from hand-stamped leather to Berber carpets to fresh-ground cumin. The Bahia Palace and Saadian Tombs offer a glimpse into Morocco's opulent dynastic past. A base for exploring Marrakech, Fes, Meknes, and Rabat, the imperial cities route is Morocco's most rewarding itinerary. Marrakech & the Imperial Cities
