Djemaa el-Fna
Marvel at the non-stop drama in the Djemaa el-Fna, the UNESCO-listed public square in the medina of Marrakech. See henna-painters, potion-sellers, snake-charmers and acrobats by day.

Scenic landscapes
Boggle your mind with the spectacular outer-space landscapes of the Todra Gorge, reached through the dramatic Dades Valley carpeted with wild roses in spring.
