With more than 600 ha, Marrakech's Medina is the largest Medina in the entire Maghreb; it is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage. In the heart of Marrakech, the Medina is a treasure for any tourist who love to get lost in its winding streets. With its fountains, patios and gardens of orange trees, strolling around this charming area is a real pleasure. In addition to the flashes of colors, magic carpets, oil lamps and leather purses, the souks are a permanent show for tourists and Marrakchis alike. In the past few years, the Medina's traditional houses have undergone major renovations and the riads, now charming guest-houses, attract tourists in search of One Thousand and One magical Nights.
