The Kingdom of a Thousand Kingdoms. The spirit of Morocco finds full expression in art. A country of artisans, even everyday objects are rendered with extraordinary craftsmanship. Markets are full of brass wares, leather goods, exquisite carpets and embroidery work of fine quality and beauty.
On a larger scale, this national artistic inclination is expressed in buildings, gardens and fountains. Owing to the various tribal, dynastic, and colonial influences, in Moroccan architecture one finds seemingly opposing expressions of rapture, ostentation and formidable might. As in the country, the result is a distinct and cohesive character, greater than the sum of its many influences. Arabesque tracery, geometric design, stylized vegetation and multicolored mosaic may cover entire structures or contribute just a hint of detail in otherwise featureless stone.

This exchange has turned the place happy, bringing money and work at a city that lives off her looks and her wits.
Crossing driveways, especially in the Medina (old city), it is easy to believe you have been transported back in time or stumbled on a film set for a medieval production of "Arabian Nights". The heart of the Medina is Djemaa el-Fna, a "place" where everything seems irregular occur and the place to which tourists are drawn repeatedly to absorb the carnival-like environment. The modern side of Marrakech with its luxury hotels, banks and streets bursting with motor scooters, blends well with the past in a metropolis made up of peoples of the Berber Atlas tribes, Mahgreb plains, and Saharan nomads.


        The face of Morocco is a shifting puzzle. The landscape itself varies dramatically throughout the country. Broad peaceful beaches give way to lively gem like cities perched around and among rolling green hills and ragged peaks which then descend into the heaving expanse of the Sahara Desert. Historically, such variation fostered strong tribal affiliations over national unity.
