With a hotel in one of the souks, Marrakech travelers are right in the middle of a seemingly never-ending tangle of colors, smells and visitors. The largest souk in all of Africa can be found in the medina of the Red City. Spices from curcuma to cinnamon, aromatic oils, henna tattoos, oriental lamps or leather goods made by hand - the markets have it all, haggling and bargaining are inevitable. Souks are social meeting places and exude an incomparably lively and authentic flair.
