Marrakech, a former imperial city in western Morocco, is a major economic center and home to mosques, palaces and gardens. The medina is a densely packed, walled medieval city dating to the Berber Empire, with mazelike alleys where thriving souks (marketplaces) sell traditional textiles, pottery and jewelry. A symbol of the city, and visible for miles, is the Moorish minaret of 12th-century Koutoubia Mosque.Key features:• Recommendations based on time of day• Top things to do in Marrakech by categories or your location• Marrakech sights and attractions• Find out what’s near you• Plan your itineraries• Discover Moroccan hospitality as you learn about the culture and history of Marrakech
