Morocco, a North African country bordering the Atlantic Ocean, is a magical destination with no shortage of beautiful landmarks and natural wonders to explore. Here are a few to add to your list.

Marrakech

Known as the “Red City,” Marrakech is a must-visit destination. The iconic Jemaa el-Fnaa square buzzes with energy, while the intricate architecture of the Bahia Palace and the serene Majorelle Garden are a tranquil escape within the city. And be sure to check out the local markets, souks, for some unique finds.

Chefchaouen

The enchanting blue-washed streets of Chefchaouen are one of Morocco’s most picturesque destinations. Located in the Rif Mountains, this charming town’s blue buildings create a striking contrast against the landscapes. A perfect photo op!

Fes

Fes is the cultural heart of Morocco. The UNESCO-listed Medina of Fes el-Bali, one of the world’s largest car-free urban areas, will transport you back in time with its preserved medieval architecture and traditional way of life.

Sahara Desert

And finally, the desert. The rolling dunes and golden landscapes are, without a doubt, an otherworldly experience. You can do a camel trek or 4×4 excursion and ride through the desert at sunset for an unforgettable experience.
