Marrakech, Morocco 030124

Today is mostly a travel (drive) day back to Marrakech – where we will spend the final 2 days of our time here in Morocco.

Leaving our hotel in Dadés.  Built into the hillside, level space comes at a premium.  One has to take many stairs (sometimes both down and up) to get anywhere in the hotel.

Even roadside bathroom stops are photogenic.

Back in Marrakech – at the Jemaal El Fna, the renowned  square and market place in Marrakesh’s medina quarter (old city).   This has been a marketplace location since at least the 1100s.

There are “districts” where certain types of merchandise are sold, but we couldn’t discern any organization.

We did find an artist Brenda liked and are coming home with something rolled up in our suitcase.
