The Covid-19 pandemic has disrupted the whole world. Every industry has been affected and the most of all has been the tourism industry. But the whole world is coming to terms with the virus and slowly opening up. Safety features are being introduced and the tourism industry is also making sure that all safety protocols are adhered to. You can begin your Morocco vacations as soon as there is an ease in travel restrictions. And when you visit you should not forget to visit the following places:
Marrakesh Medina:
The Marrakesh Medina is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Morocco. The vibrancy and the constant buzzing can be a culture shock but if you want to experience something really beautiful and vibrant you need to take in everything slowly. The stalls, the snake charmers, the vendors, the musicians all add to the old world charm of the place. The streets are like a maze but it is an experience which you will treasure. You will find a lot of memorabilia here, so be ready to shop.
Hasssan II Mosque:
This is one of Casablanca’s most famous buildings. The construction of the mosque was completed in 1993 and more than ten thousand artisans worked day and night to create this wonderful edifice. The carvings on marble, the mosaic, and the tiles are all examples of the wonderful craftsmanship that Morocco has managed to cultivate and nurture. Though it is a contemporary building it still has an old world charm and should be on the top of your list during your Morocco tours.
Oudaias Kasbah:
The Oudaias Kasbah in Rabat is one of the most picturesque places in the country. The blue coloured buildings are a photographer’s delight. The Kasbah is very famous on social media. Many tourists on their Morocco vacations visit the place after learning about it in Instagram and Facebook.
Fes el Bali:
If you want to really understand Moroccan culture you should head to Fes which is one of the cultural melting pots of the country. The wonderful doors and the plasterwork provide great opportunities for creative photographs. If you are photographically inclined you will be taking a lot of photographs when you visit Fes. There are many tanneries in the area and you can visit and learn about the industry, but beware of the smell.
Tangier:
Tangier is as European as they come. The city has a history and it is mostly about debauchery. Though the city has become decent there are places that are still known for their profligate ways.
Chefchaouen:
Set in the Rif Mountains is the beautiful town of Chefchaouen. The blue on blue buildings are quite an attraction. It is a quiet place to relax and enjoy the old world beauty. If you want some peace and quiet away from the cities then Chefchaouen is the place to head to while on your Morocco vacations. If you are an outdoors person then the town is the place from where you can go on wonderful trekking expeditions on the Rif Mountains.
Volubilis:
The best Roman ruins in the country of Morocco, it is a place one must visit. Just viewing the huge columns and the remains of huge buildings is bound to give a person goose bumps. You can explore the place quite quickly and you need half a day maximum for it. If you are in Fes you can visit Volubilis and head back the same evening.
Ait Ben Haddou:
This fortress is very scenic and you can enjoy the beauty in a laidback fashion here. It is one of the leading Hollywood locations. The ideal time to visit is early morning or late evening. The fortress does not have electricity so arrive when there is light.
Erg Chebbi:
For those who wish to enjoy the Sahara Desert, the place to head to is Erg Chebbi. You will find many desert explorers here. The sand dunes of Erg Chebbi are well known and you can enjoy many adventure games such as dune surfing, camel trekking, four wheel drive dune bashing etc. The best part about visiting Erg Chebbi is camping in the night and viewing the night sky. The stars seem splendid in the night desert sky always. And if you stay quiet you can even feel the desert whispering to you. A desert is a different experience which everyone should enjoy and savour.
