Marrakesh – "Morocco City", as early travellers called it – has always been something of a pleasure city. For visitors it's a city of immense beauty, low, red and tentlike before a great shaft of mountains. At the heart of it all is a square, Djemaa El Fna, a stage for a long-established ritual in which shifting circles of onlookers gather round groups of acrobats, drummers, pipe musicians, storytellers, comedians and fairground acts. The city's architectural attractions are immense, the delicate Granada-style carving of the Saadian Tombs and, above all, the Koutoubia Minaret, the most perfect Islamic monument in North Africa. |
