Just a short distance away from Europe is a world apart in culture and ambience – Morocco. Here, you’re spoilt for choice – the buzzing bazaars of Fez, the sunny resort city of Marrakesh, dreamy Casablanca and the opulent palaces of Rabat all vie for your attention, providing you an exotic cultural experience you’d be hard pressed to find anywhere else.
Bordered by Spain to the north but occupying a whole other continent, Morocco is an exotic gem in North Africa that offers so much to see and do. In the imperial city of Fez, you can see the fascinating labyrinthine Medina plus the Royal Palace, or perhaps haggle over beautiful Moroccan carpets – an everlasting souvenir! Revel in the exotic atmosphere of this imperial city of Morocco and you’ll surely be longing for more.
For a dose of sun all year-round, head to the popular resort city of Marrakesh, which was once the favourite holiday spot of Sir Winston Churchill. Here, don’t miss seeing the opulent 19th century Bahia Palace that features an 8,000-square-metre garden and grand courtyard. For a taste of the city’s vibrant atmosphere, wander through one of Africa’s busiest squares, the Djemaa Square, where you’ll be met by palm readers, acrobats, musicians and dancers. By nightfall, you’ll be greeted with a heady mix of food stalls providing endless dining choices to satisfy your cravings.
Film buffs must visit the romantic city of Casablanca, scene of Humphrey Bogart’s most magical moments and some of North Africa’s best beaches. As the largest city in Morocco, Casablanca is an economic and cultural hub that offers its visitors much to gaze at and explore. Wander through the maze of twisted streets in the Casbah or marvel at the Hassan II Mosque, which stands proudly above the ocean on a rocky outcrop. For an escape from the city’s buzz, head to the Corniche, where you can enjoy panoramic views or simply watch the world go by at a seaside café.
While in Morocco, don’t forget to explore the country’s capital of Rabat, which shines with royal attractions – a Royal Mosque, Mausoleum and Royal Palace. The white marble Mausoleum gleams with kaleidoscopic mosaics on the inside, while the opulent Royal Palace was built on the ruins of an 18th century palace. Explore the Kasbah des Oudaias in the oldest part of Rabat and you’ll encounter narrow streets and whitewashed houses that will charm you.
