 Marrakesh After a few weeks of driving through all of the cities and town of Morocco, Ben and I were winding down our trip in Marrakech. Marrakech is definitely like no other city in Morocco. In many ways, it's more of a parody of what Westerners think Morocco probably is. In the main square you'll find monkey handlers, falconers, snake charmers, and all sorts of other characters like that trying to make a buck from tourists. It's a fun place, but also extremely chaotic. We had a great time wandering through the various spice markets, shops, and things of that nature, but as we happened to find a riad extremely close to the main square, we inevitably had to walk through all of the tourists to get back to our hotel. And of course from the rooftop on the riad one could easily hear all of the sounds coming from the main square. On the second to last day there, we decided to go for a drive and found an amazing lake about 45 minutes away from Marrakech called Lalla Takerkoust. We wound up staying there for 2 nights instead of inside of Marrakech at the end. In this album: Ben Lowrey, Peacock |
