Open the Door to Marrakech

Orange-brown metal door. There is an off-white diamond with a yellow and gold 4 point compass in gold and bright blue on the door. There is a hand of fatima in bright blue near the top of the diamond. There are planters on either side of the door. The alcove is decorated in mosaic tiles in shades of blue

There are so many reasons to unlock the door to Marrakech. We spent a long weekend in Morocco to get a feel for this vibrant city on Europe’s doorstep.

Open the door to Marrakech and enter a riad; a sanctuary from the chaos of Marrakech’s streets. Stepping into a riad from the buzzing streets is like entering an oasis of peace and quiet.

Admire the ornate doors of Marrakech like this beautiful Moroccan entrance. Watch out for the traffic (pedestrian, motorcycles, and cars) that buzzes through the Medina. You don’t want to get injured in pursuit of your door photography passion!

Open the door to enter a Moroccan bath or hammam for a unique experience that is simultaneously invigorating and relaxing.

Step through the door and leave the city on a day trip to the spectacular Ourika Valley full of spectacular hikes and waterfalls to round out the trip.
