Morocco or al-Magrib
Before the madness began with the season holidays and other serious events we went to Morocco to visit a friend and travel a bit around.
I will not talk so much, i will just let the pictures do the talking and give you a brief note on the places i have seen.
Rabat, featured below, is by Moroccan standards, the cleanest city i have seen. But who cares about that? It is the capital town, with embassies, government offices, etc. Loved the Medina, with a very Mediterranean feeling to it, the proximity to the ocean which made it also very pleasant in terms of weather. Good restaurants around, good sea food!
Fez, is the cultural capital of Morocco, one of the oldest universities in the world was founded here, a town bustling with activity, very chic in a rudimentary kind, with donkeys still a main transport mean. The terrines smell awful though. I had to smile all the time to stop my gagging reflex.
Marrakech is amazing. Really gorgeous. We stayed in a little Ryad, a 15 minutes walk through very busy, very narrow streets to the center. Walking through Marrakech is an adventure in itself. You will have scooters whizzing past you at 40km/h madly slaloming through crowds, bicycles crashing into you and lots of food stalls.
Imlil is a starting point for all trecking trips in Morocco. Just at the base of Atlas mountains, a gorgeous place to observe berber hospitality and feel humbled by the views.
I wish i were a better photographer to have captured it all. Hope you will still enjoy the photos,
Cezar
