The Red City at the foot of the Atlas, one of the great living medieval cities of the Arab and Berber world. Its heart beats at Jemaa el-Fnaa, a square UNESCO named a masterpiece of intangible heritage, ringed by souks that run mosque to palace behind ochre ramparts. Read the medina and the Koutoubia, the Saadian tombs and the jewel-box palaces, and the cobalt-blue Majorelle Garden the desert made possible. Best taken slowly, at your own pace.
