Marrakech: Morocco's "Red City" and Millennium Cultural Hub
Marrakech, the historic imperial city of Morocco, is located in the foothills of the Atlas Mountains in the southwest of the country and is known as the "Red City" for its iconic red earthen architecture. It has been an important trade and cultural center in North Africa since the Almoravid dynasty founded it in the 11th century, and the Old Town (Medina), designated a World Heritage Site in 1985, is a collection of winding alleyways that house traditional bazaars, mosques and palaces, such as the street performances in the Djemaa Square, the minarets of the Koutoubia Mosque, and the exquisite mosaics of the Bahia Palace. With its exotic blend of Berber, Arab and Andalusian flavors, spice markets, leather workshops and garden courtyards (such as the Jardin Majorelle), it's a must-visit for a taste of Morocco's tradition and modernity.
