Marrakech is an important and former imperial city and is the capital of southern Morocco. This colourful oasis is full of exotic flavour and is now considered to be a Mecca for tourism in this part of Africa. The unique character of this city has remained unchanged for many years and it is only recently that the city has been influenced by the arrival of the Europeans.
Some important sites to see is the Bahia Palace which is known locally as the Palais de la Bahia. Unfortunately only a very limited number of the actual numbers of rooms are open to the public, but you can still appreciate its breathtaking architecture and view some very elaborately carved interiors.
Also the Palais El Badi is another three hundred and sixty room structure which once featured ornately engraved rooms. Today the ruins are still worth exploring and the annual National Festival of Popular Arts is held at this location.
Another interesting historical attraction is the Gate of the Gnaoua with its elaborate trompe l'oeil effect over the entrance. It is one of twenty gates in the city that once gave protection to the inhabitants who lived behind the pink ramparts in the palaces and mansions of the old Medina.

The Marrakech Museum which is housed within the Dar M'Nebhi Palace is another popular place for tourists.

For those who are also interested in the Art world, the Museum of Islamic Art, the Jardin Majorelle and the Fondation Culturelle Dar Bellarj all have on display breathtaking collections from Moroccan and international artists.
The city though is really famous throughout the world for its maze of covered market streets and souqs. It can also lay claim to having one of the busiest squares in Africa and it is at the Djemaa el Fna that you can expect to see various entertainment artists like acrobats, water sellers, musicians, dancers and story tellers. By night the whole area magically transforms itself into one huge busy open-air restaurant.
For interesting day trips out, try going to the Ourika Valley which has become a popular place to see the countryside or go to the nearby village of Asnia which lies in the Atlas Mountains and also has the tallest mountain in the North of the country. For sport enthusiasts, try going in the winter to the mountain resort of Oukaimeden, where you will be pleasantly surprised to find excellent skiing facilities on hand.
