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 district with a labyrinthine feel, is a lively place, with Jemaa el-Fna Square and the souks (markets) selling ceramics, jewelry, and metal lanterns. The Kasbah of the Oudayas in Rabat, the capital, is a 12th-century royal fortress overlooking the ocean.
