Marrakech
The Imperial City of Marrakech
I traveled on the overnight sleeper train from
Tangier to Marrakech.
I stayed at a guesthouse in the medina,
a short walk from
Sāḥat Jāmi' al-Fanā'
or the "Mosque at the End of the World".
It's a large square that is home to a market and festival
that runs every day and up into the evening.
It has snake charmers, sooth-sayers, story-tellers,
trained apes, dubious healers,
and an array of food stalls.
The Saadian tombs and the Ben Youssef religious complex
are top sights in Marrakech.
