Founded in 1062, Marrakech was once the capital of an empire which stretched
from Toledo to Senegal.
It is even called the 'Red City' because of the colour of the local earth used
in its construction.
Marrakech is the imperial city which, about 1000 years ago, gave Morocco its
name.
The Berbers and the Arabs come together here, to mingle with the nomads and
the mountain people.
It is a city of alleyways, lovely buildings, museums, mosques and markets.
Every imaginable commodity abounds, craftsmanship flourishes, and there are
palaces, hotels, restaurants, golf courses, a rich nightlife and a casino. This
and much more is Marrakech, the unique capital of Southern Morocco.
