Marrakesh

Marrakesh, Morocco Population 1,608,095 From the moment you arrive in Marrakesh, you'll get the distinct feeling you've left something behind - a toothbrush or socks, maybe? But no, what you'll be missing in Marrakesh is predictability and all sense of direction. Never mind: you're better off without them here. Marrakesh is too packed with mind-boggling distractions and labyrinthine alleyways to adhere to boring linear logic. If you did have a destination, you'd only be way laid by snake charmers, out -of-control donkey carts, trendy silver leather poufs and ancient Berber cures for everything from relationships to rent. Start at the action-packed Djemaa el-Fna, ...

Rabat

Rabat, Morocco Pop 1.7 million While Rabat, Morocco's political and administrative capital since independence in 1956, has not established itself as a tourist destination, the few visitors who do go find a gem of a city. The colonial architecture is stunning, the palm-lined boulevards are well kept and relatively free of traffic, and the atmosphere is as cosmopolitan as its economic big brother down the coast. All in all, life here is pleasant and civilized. Casablancais say that, with all the bureaucrats, Rabat is dull, and they have a point. Yet the city is more laid-back, pleasant and more provincial than Casablanca, ...

Fez

Fez, Morocco Pop 1 million In recent years Fez has boomed as a tourist destination. Money has poured into the city, from foreigners buying up riads in the medina to new parks and fountains in the ville nouvelle. If you believe the travel and style pages of the Western media, Fez has become the new Marrakesh. Tell a Fassi that however, and they'll laugh in your face. Fez as the new anywhere? This is an old and supremely self-confident city that has nothing to prove to anyone. Dynasties and booms have all come and gone in the city's l200-year existence, and Fez will ...

Casablanca

Casablanca, Morocco Casablanca and Rabat are transport hubs for the region. Both are on the national train line with direct links to Tangier, Oujda, Fez, Meknes and Marrakesh. Both also have international airports, though Casablanca has a far greater number of international flights. Many travelers stay in Casablanca just long enough to change planes or catch a train, but the sprawling metropolis deserves more time. It may not be as exotic as other Moroccan cities, but it is the country's economical and cultural capital, and it represents Morocco on the move: Casablanca is where the money is being made, where the industry ...
