Marrakech
Marrakech is Morocco's ochre-walled former imperial capital, centered on a UNESCO-listed medina founded by the Almoravids in 1070-1072. The mapped attractions are Jemaa el Fnaa, Bahia Palace, Majorelle Garden, Koutoubia Mosque, Saadian Tombs, Medina of Marrakech, Ben Youssef Madrasa, El Badi Palace, Menara Gardens, and Maison de la Photographie. It is strongest for travelers who like architecture, gardens, craft shopping, food, street life, photography, and day trips toward the Atlas Mountains.
Two full days is a sensible minimum; three or four gives better pacing and time for gardens or a hammam. Spend one day walking the medina between Jemaa el Fnaa, the souks, Koutoubia Mosque, Bahia Palace, El Badi Palace, and the Saadian Tombs. Use another for Majorelle Garden, the Pierre Berge Museum of Berber Arts, Gueliz, Menara Gardens, or photography-focused stops such as Maison de la Photographie. Sunset is the classic time for Jemaa el Fnaa from a terrace, while early morning is better for quieter lanes and palace courtyards.
UNESCO identifies the Medina of Marrakesh as a major Islamic capital of the western Mediterranean and specifically notes the Koutoubia Mosque, Kasbah, ramparts, monumental gates, gardens, Badi Palace, Ben Youssef Madrasa, Saadian Tombs, Bahia Palace, and Jemaa el Fnaa. UNESCO's intangible-heritage page for Jemaa el Fnaa describes the square as a central cultural space of musicians, storytellers, food stalls, traditional services, and evening entertainment. The Moroccan National Tourist Office highlights the medina, Koutoubia's 77-metre minaret, Menara Gardens, festivals, souks, and the city's mix of historic quarters and modern Gueliz.
Practical details vary by site. Jardin Majorelle's official site warns visitors to buy tickets only through its official ticketing website; it lists daily garden hours of 8:00 am to 6:30 pm, last entry at 6:00 pm, with the Berber Arts museum generally 8:30 am to 6:00 pm and disabled access noted for the garden and museums. Morocco's Ministry of Culture ticket portal lists Saadian Tombs foreign adult admission at 100 Dh and gives free entry to people with reduced mobility. Modest dress is useful around religious buildings, non-Muslims generally view Koutoubia from outside, and bargaining is normal in souks but should remain polite.
Visitor Tip: Book Majorelle Garden in advance through the official ticket site, then group the medina monuments geographically on foot; taxis can get you to the gates, but the old-city core is best explored slowly and with offline maps.
