Country: Morocco
Morocco, a North African country on the Atlantic and Mediterranean coasts, is distinguished by its Berber, Arab, and European influences. The medina of Marrakech, a medieval quarter with labyrinthine streets, is a lively place, with its Jemaa el-Fna Square and its souks (markets) selling ceramics, jewelry, and metal lanterns. The Kasbah of the Oudayas in Rabat, the capital, is a royal fortress dating from the 12th century that overlooks the ocean.
