A visit to Marrakech , one of Morocco's jewels, wouldn't be complete without exploring the medina, with its ancient walls, more than twenty gigantic gates, and a central courtyard where people continue to live in a traditional way. There's plenty to keep you entertained in the medina: mosques to admire, palaces to excite, and souks to lose yourself in, but you won't do any of these sites justice in a single day. And why would you want to?
The Bahia Palace:
Don't let the unassuming entrance fool you; behind the door, you'll find a delightful surprise. The Bahia Palace is worth a visit for its incredible architecture and charming rooms with mosaic ceilings and ornate stone carvings.
The palace, a haven of peace when Marrakech is sweltering, is lavishly decorated. The multicolored tiles, green ceramic roofs, yellow and blue arches, and courtyard gardens overflowing with jasmine and cypress trees are a photographer's dream. If you would like to learn more about the history of the Bahia Palace, it would be wise to hire a guide who will be happy to share their knowledge with you.
