Marrakesh, Morrocco.

From the silently winding streets of the high-walled medina, to the colourful commotion of its bustling souks, Marrakesh is a truly captivating city in a multitude of ways.

Its historic medina quarter is a densely packed walled city with a labyrinth of alleyways in which marketplaces boast of traditional textiles, spices, pottery, and jewellery. Walking through the maze-like streets of Marrakesh, also known as ‘The Red City’, the sights, sounds, and scents of craftsmanship are hard to miss. The stalls, adorned with technicolour materials, proudly present intricately woven pashminas, blankets, and footwear. Songs of metalwork and leather punching ring out from marketplace workshops, as onlookers gather to admire the handiwork taking place. The air, laden with scents of homemade spices, whisper stories of generations worth of family recipes.
