MARRAKESH--DAY TWO

Marrakesh is an amazing city and deserves several days to really be able to experience all the sights and sounds.  As a travel agent in addition to the beauty of any city the quality of the hotels is paramount in learning about a destination to recommend to my clients.  This morning we toured hotels.  Marrakesh does not disappoint when hotel product is reviewed.  There are amazing properties that have every convenience and are a showcase of all things Moroccan.  There are also Riads which are converted beautiful homes that are located right in the Medina and offer intimate personal service.  There is definitely something for everyone!

During the afternoon we toured the Jardin Majorelle which was owned by Yves Saint Laurent and now serves as a resting place for some of his ashes.  It is a beautiful place and should not be missed by any visitor to Marrakesh.

After the gardens we returned to the Medina in order to see how the Square is transformed in the evening to a gathering place where everyone comes to eat and enjoy lively music.  It is like a Carnival!  Everyone shops and eats!
