Shopping

The Médina with its bazaar is a must for any visitor in Marrakech. In the morning, enjoy strolling around in peace. The later in the day, the busier it gets... “A visit to Marrakech was a great shock to me. This city taught me color.“ Yves-Saint Laurent

Mhamid is a new district directly nearby the Airport. No foreigners here, it is the home of a lot of families as there are plenty of schools. Take the time to stroll through the streets with an impressive mix of shops and ateliers, coffees and restaurants and street sellers. Secret tip: enjoy some rest at the Café Taiba with its pâtisserie and traditionnal Hammam ;-)
