Marrakech y el argán.
Tumblr media
Piedad Maker llevaba tiempo queriendo visitar Marruecos. Le interesaba conocer la cultura y la historia del país, pero también quería aprender sobre la producción de aceite de argán, un producto natural y sostenible que se utiliza en la cosmética y la gastronomía.
Tumblr media
Piedad llegó a Marrakech y se quedó unos días para visitar la ciudad. Visitó la medina, los zocos y la plaza Jamaa el-Fna.
Tumblr media
Después de unos días en Marrakech, Piedad se dirigió a Esauira. Esta ciudad costera es conocida por sus casas azules, sus playas y su viento fuerte. Piedad se alojó en un riad, una casa tradicional marroquí, y empezó a explorar la ciudad.
Tumblr media
Un día, Piedad visitó una cooperativa de mujeres que produce aceite de argán. Las mujeres le mostraron todo el proceso de producción, desde la recolección de las nueces de argán hasta la elaboración del aceite. Piedad quedó impresionada por el trabajo de las mujeres y por el compromiso que tienen con la sostenibilidad.

Piedad también visitó una tienda de cosmética natural que elabora productos con aceite de argán. Compró varios productos, entre ellos un jabón de argán. Desde entonces, Piedad utiliza el jabón de argán todos los días y está muy contenta con los resultados.

Marrakech Express 🇲🇦 3 Days
Marrakech known as the Pearl of the South or the red city, is a city in Morocco at the foot of the Atlas Mountains. Located at the crossroads of the Sahara and the High Atlas, it is a home to nearly 1.5 million people, Marrakech is the 4th largest city in Morocco after Casablanca, Rabat and Fez.
Tumblr media
Marrakech has given its name to the entire kingdom of Morocco. The city was established in 1062 by Youssef Ibn Tachfine, first king of the Almoravid line.
The city offers a kaleidoscope of experiences to adventurous travellers. Ancient architecture, a rich culture, delicious food and lively souks all enchant travellers. But there’s more to Morocco than just Marrakech.
Tumblr media
WHAT TO VISIT
Jardin De Majorelle
This wonderful botanic garden took off in 1980 by becoming a blue dream, with the helps of many artists and botanists sent by the fashion designer Yves saint-Laurent, who became the new owner of this place.
Majorelle garden is a small natural paradise with thousand colors which includes several species of plants, some of are on the verge of extinction. in this paradise we also find goldfish strutting between jasmine flowers, orange trees, fuchsias and bougainvillea.
Tumblr media
Jamâa El Fna Square
Recognized by UNESCO's Oral World Heritage of Humanity. Jamaâ el Fna is the unmissable place of Marrakech, the living heart of the city and which is for a large part a constituent of its charm and its popular identity. Jamaa el Fna Square is a place where the oral parthony of the city of Marrakech and all over the country is expressed with storytellers from all walks of life, snake charmers, groups of Berber musicians and others, acrobats and others.
Saadian Tombs
Tumblr media
The Saadian Tombs represents one of the only remains of the Saadian dynasty that reigned over the golden age of Marrakech between 1524 to 1659, it is located next to the mosque of Kasbah.
The Sultan Moulay Ismail in the early 18th century had indeed decided to remove all traces of the magnificence of this dynasty and demanded the destruction of all remaining buildings and vestiges. Although he dared not, however, commit the sacrilege of destroying their burials.
Tumblr media
WHAT TO DO
1) Agafay Desert
The Agafay desert is located about 1 hour drive from Marrakech and covers several hundred hectares.
For several years, it has become the place to be if you come to Marrakech.
The landscapes are impressive with rock dunes (not sand dunes!) and a breathtaking view of the mountains during the winter.
We did an amazing QUAD TOUR over there 🏍
Tumblr media
2) Hammam
📍Les Bains D'Orient
Going to the hammam in Marrakesh is a very enjoyable tradition, no doubt about it. But what many people don’t realise is that this delightful ritual is much more about hygiene than hedonism. And, more than just something done for pleasure, it’s an obligatory weekly practice in which the majority of the population tends to take part.
In fact, Moroccans go to the hammam as a family, with men on one side and women on the other. With no need to rush, the ideal time for an effective treatment is a morning or afternoon spent in the rooms of this type of Marrakesh spa. Although we should mention that the spa is a somewhat more modern concept, as opposed to the hammam, whose origins go back thousands of years.
To understand and enjoy the hammam in Marrakesh, it’s worth going to one of the more authentic and classic ones. In other words, those not specifically designed for foreign travellers who visit the city
Because going to a traditional hammam in Marrakesh is undoubtedly one of the best ways to understand a very important part of Moroccan daily life and how their social relationships are established.
3) Day Trip to Essaouira
A former fishing village in the touristy region of Marrakech-Safi, Essaouira is now a booming tourist destination. It even enticed the production crew of Game of Thrones to film several episodes here. Rich in history, culture and music, Essaouira boasts a range of relaxing and enjoyable things to do and see.
Tumblr media
The argan tree is native to Morocco and there are an awful lot of places wher you’ll find argan oil and argan products. In Essaouira, you can visit an argan oil cooperative, where you can witness the products that are so important to Morocco being made. In rooms adorned with argan trees, women use ancient tools to hand press oil from the kernels and complete the elaborate process of creating argan cream. It is indeed more expensive to buy the argan products from here, but it’s definitely worth seeing the process first hand in what is something like an open air museum.
WHERE TO EAT
Naima Cous Cous
Best cous cous in the Medina, it really seems to eat at somebody's place!
Dar Charifa
Elegant riad where to eat Marocco food in a fancy place
The signature dish of Marrakech is tangia, which is not to be confused with the similar sounding tagine. Slow-cooked lamb is placed in a clay urn with lemon, garlic and saffron and then cooked in charcoal until tender.
WHERE TO STAY
We stayed at Riad Dar Colline.
In general, a riad is a building with rooms and common areas around a central courtyard. Of course, riads aren’t a modern day phenomenon. They’ve existed in Morocco for centuries.
Tumblr media
Historically, the houses in Moroccan medinas were almost always inwardly focused with a large courtyard at the center. There were two reasons for this: the weather and the culture. Small exterior windows and a central courtyard helped to keep a constant, comfortable temperature inside the home. Moroccans have always valued privacy and don’t like to show off, they prefer houses that look modest on the outside and lavishly furnish them with beauty in every detail on the inside. The ample courtyard at the center also provides a pleasant space for activities with the family.

8-Day Adventure from Casablanca: A Journey Through Morocco
Tumblr media
I just finished an incredible 8 days tour from Casablanca, and I have to share this unforgettable experience. It all started with my arrival in Casablanca, where I was greeted at the airport or my hotel. We began with a walk along the Corniche to explore the city, marveling at the majestic Hassan II Mosque, with its towering minaret, the tallest in Africa. We also visited the United Nations building and Mohammed V Avenue.
On the second day of our tour from Casablanca, we departed for Rabat, the current capital of Morocco. We explored the old Medina, a UNESCO World Heritage site, and the famous Hassan Tower. Then, we visited Volubilis, an ancient Roman site, before heading to Meknes. There, we had lunch and discovered landmarks like Bab Mansour and the Moulay Ismail Palace. In the evening, we arrived in Fez and spent the night in a charming Riad.
The third day was all about exploring Fez. After breakfast, a local guide took us through the medieval city, visiting the Royal Palace, the Karaouine Mosque and Madrassa, and the tomb of Moulay Idriss II. We had lunch in a traditional restaurant before visiting the Nejjarine Fountain, the old harem garden, and the Batha Museum. We ended the day with a panoramic view of the city before heading back to the hotel.
On the fourth day, after breakfast, we set off for Beni Mellal, passing through Ifrane, known as the "European village" for its architecture, and Azrou, famous for its cedar forests and red carpets. After lunch in Azrou, we continued to Beni Mellal, where we spent the night.
On the fifth day, we left Beni Mellal after breakfast to admire the Ouzoud waterfalls. We had lunch with a panoramic view of the falls before heading to Marrakech, where we spent the night in a comfortable hotel.
The sixth day was dedicated to discovering Marrakech. We visited the Menara Gardens, the Koutoubia Mosque, Majorelle Gardens, Bahia Palace, and the Dar Si Said Museum. After an optional lunch in the Medina, we explored the colorful souks. We ended the day with a sunset view from a café terrace overlooking Jamaa El Fna square, followed by a special dinner at the hotel.
On the seventh day, we left Marrakech after breakfast and headed back to Casablanca. Along the way, we passed through diverse landscapes, from the High Atlas Mountains to the hills near Casablanca. Upon arrival, we checked into our hotel and had lunch. The afternoon was free to explore Casablanca with the help of our professional driver.
On the last day, our driver helped me check out and drove me to the Casablanca airport, marking the end of our 8 days tour from Casablanca. It was truly an extraordinary experience, rich with discoveries and emotions.
