hi imane i’m going to morocco next week! wanted to know if there are any good reads on the country you can rec, or anything to do in Fes, Chefchaouen, and Marrakech :))
hi babe! hope you have fun in morocco <3 honestly except non fiction i have nothing to recommend sadly. that's really a basic ass answer but maybe leila slimani? not that i've read or that i intend on reading her books but they seem popular. as far as what to do in fes chefchaouen or marrakech i've never been to any of these cities but outside of marrakech there's a town named ouzoud that's where part of my mom's family is from and there are very cute waterfalls there so you should definitely visit if you can! actually now that i'm looking at the map it's much closer to beni mellal than to marrakech but i'm sure you can organise a day trip skjfkgj and in marrakech if you want good coffee there's an %ARABICA branch. sorry that's literally the worst answer ever if anybody who knows what they're saying is reading this post pls share some books/places!

Marrakech y el argán.
Tumblr media
Piedad Maker llevaba tiempo queriendo visitar Marruecos. Le interesaba conocer la cultura y la historia del país, pero también quería aprender sobre la producción de aceite de argán, un producto natural y sostenible que se utiliza en la cosmética y la gastronomía.
Tumblr media
Piedad llegó a Marrakech y se quedó unos días para visitar la ciudad. Visitó la medina, los zocos y la plaza Jamaa el-Fna.
Tumblr media
Después de unos días en Marrakech, Piedad se dirigió a Esauira. Esta ciudad costera es conocida por sus casas azules, sus playas y su viento fuerte. Piedad se alojó en un riad, una casa tradicional marroquí, y empezó a explorar la ciudad.
Tumblr media
Un día, Piedad visitó una cooperativa de mujeres que produce aceite de argán. Las mujeres le mostraron todo el proceso de producción, desde la recolección de las nueces de argán hasta la elaboración del aceite. Piedad quedó impresionada por el trabajo de las mujeres y por el compromiso que tienen con la sostenibilidad.
Tumblr media
Piedad también visitó una tienda de cosmética natural que elabora productos con aceite de argán. Compró varios productos, entre ellos un jabón de argán. Desde entonces, Piedad utiliza el jabón de argán todos los días y está muy contenta con los resultados.
Tumblr media
El viaje de Piedad a Marruecos fue una experiencia donde aprendió sobre la cultura y la historia del país, y también sobre la producción de aceite de argán.

Marrakech Express 🇲🇦 3 Days
Marrakech known as the Pearl of the South or the red city, is a city in Morocco at the foot of the Atlas Mountains. Located at the crossroads of the Sahara and the High Atlas, it is a home to nearly 1.5 million people, Marrakech is the 4th largest city in Morocco after Casablanca, Rabat and Fez.
Tumblr media
Marrakech has given its name to the entire kingdom of Morocco. The city was established in 1062 by Youssef Ibn Tachfine, first king of the Almoravid line.
The city offers a kaleidoscope of experiences to adventurous travellers. Ancient architecture, a rich culture, delicious food and lively souks all enchant travellers. But there’s more to Morocco than just Marrakech.
Tumblr media
WHAT TO VISIT
Jardin De Majorelle
This wonderful botanic garden took off in 1980 by becoming a blue dream, with the helps of many artists and botanists sent by the fashion designer Yves saint-Laurent, who became the new owner of this place.
Majorelle garden is a small natural paradise with thousand colors which includes several species of plants, some of are on the verge of extinction. in this paradise we also find goldfish strutting between jasmine flowers, orange trees, fuchsias and bougainvillea.
Tumblr media
Jamâa El Fna Square
Recognized by UNESCO's Oral World Heritage of Humanity. Jamaâ el Fna is the unmissable place of Marrakech, the living heart of the city and which is for a large part a constituent of its charm and its popular identity. Jamaa el Fna Square is a place where the oral parthony of the city of Marrakech and all over the country is expressed with storytellers from all walks of life, snake charmers, groups of Berber musicians and others, acrobats and others.
Saadian Tombs
Tumblr media
The Saadian Tombs represents one of the only remains of the Saadian dynasty that reigned over the golden age of Marrakech between 1524 to 1659, it is located next to the mosque of Kasbah.
The Sultan Moulay Ismail in the early 18th century had indeed decided to remove all traces of the magnificence of this dynasty and demanded the destruction of all remaining buildings and vestiges. Although he dared not, however, commit the sacrilege of destroying their burials.
Tumblr media
WHAT TO DO
1) Agafay Desert
The Agafay desert is located about 1 hour drive from Marrakech and covers several hundred hectares.
For several years, it has become the place to be if you come to Marrakech.
The landscapes are impressive with rock dunes (not sand dunes!) and a breathtaking view of the mountains during the winter.
We did an amazing QUAD TOUR over there 🏍
Tumblr media
2) Hammam
📍Les Bains D'Orient
Going to the hammam in Marrakesh is a very enjoyable tradition, no doubt about it. But what many people don’t realise is that this delightful ritual is much more about hygiene than hedonism. And, more than just something done for pleasure, it’s an obligatory weekly practice in which the majority of the population tends to take part.
In fact, Moroccans go to the hammam as a family, with men on one side and women on the other. With no need to rush, the ideal time for an effective treatment is a morning or afternoon spent in the rooms of this type of Marrakesh spa. Although we should mention that the spa is a somewhat more modern concept, as opposed to the hammam, whose origins go back thousands of years.
To understand and enjoy the hammam in Marrakesh, it’s worth going to one of the more authentic and classic ones. In other words, those not specifically designed for foreign travellers who visit the city
Because going to a traditional hammam in Marrakesh is undoubtedly one of the best ways to understand a very important part of Moroccan daily life and how their social relationships are established.
3) Day Trip to Essaouira
A former fishing village in the touristy region of Marrakech-Safi, Essaouira is now a booming tourist destination. It even enticed the production crew of Game of Thrones to film several episodes here. Rich in history, culture and music, Essaouira boasts a range of relaxing and enjoyable things to do and see.
Tumblr media
The argan tree is native to Morocco and there are an awful lot of places wher you’ll find argan oil and argan products. In Essaouira, you can visit an argan oil cooperative, where you can witness the products that are so important to Morocco being made. In rooms adorned with argan trees, women use ancient tools to hand press oil from the kernels and complete the elaborate process of creating argan cream. It is indeed more expensive to buy the argan products from here, but it’s definitely worth seeing the process first hand in what is something like an open air museum.
WHERE TO EAT
Naima Cous Cous
Best cous cous in the Medina, it really seems to eat at somebody's place!
Dar Charifa
Elegant riad where to eat Marocco food in a fancy place
The signature dish of Marrakech is tangia, which is not to be confused with the similar sounding tagine. Slow-cooked lamb is placed in a clay urn with lemon, garlic and saffron and then cooked in charcoal until tender.
WHERE TO STAY
We stayed at Riad Dar Colline.
In general, a riad is a building with rooms and common areas around a central courtyard. Of course, riads aren’t a modern day phenomenon. They’ve existed in Morocco for centuries.
Tumblr media
Historically, the houses in Moroccan medinas were almost always inwardly focused with a large courtyard at the center. There were two reasons for this: the weather and the culture. Small exterior windows and a central courtyard helped to keep a constant, comfortable temperature inside the home. Moroccans have always valued privacy and don’t like to show off, they prefer houses that look modest on the outside and lavishly furnish them with beauty in every detail on the inside. The ample courtyard at the center also provides a pleasant space for activities with the family.

Marrakech is the red city
Marrakech is the red city
The medina of Marrakech, surrounded by a wide palm grove, is known as the “red city” because of its beaten clay structures and ramparts built during the Almohads’ occupancy. Jamaa el-Fna plaza, a bustling bazaar, located at the heart of the medina. The nearby Kutubiyyah (Koutoubia) Mosque, erected by Spanish captives in the 12th century, has a 253-foot (77-metre) minaret. The historical…
