ASSOULINE ‘MARRAKECH FLAIR’ BOOK

Marrakesh is said to awaken all the senses. Whether it is contemplating the intricate tile known as zellige, smelling the various spices sold in the souks, hearing the call to prayer that emanates from nearby mosques, touching the flexible leather used to make babouche slippers, or sampling a tasty tagine, Marrakesh never fails to take your breath away. Located just to the west of the Atlas mountain range and for centuries the city was inhabited by Berbers. Known as the ‘ochre city’ for its red sandy buildings and the reddish walls currently surrounding the medina, where you can find Jema-el-Fna, one of the busiest squares on the continent.
