Morocco
A wonderful find. This is a small photography museum located in the north of the Medina. It has a collection of Moroccan photographs of people and places, dating back to the 1860s over three floors. There is also a small cafe at the top of the building giving you a view of the city.

The botanical garden is absolutely mesmerising, as you stroll along the walkways you pass several plants and trees that are waiting to be photographed. In the middle of the garden is a fantastic ornate cobalt blue building. Also housed inside the garden is the Islamic Art Museum. But don't forget to take around 15 Dhirams with you for the entrance fee, you'll also notice that the hustle and bustle of the city suddenly disappears.

Dar Cherisa is a lovingly restored town house that is a wonderful place to have a tea/fruit juice or even lunch. You can sit in the courtyard, one of the rooms or on the terrace. There are also art exhibitions and books on Marrakech to leaf through. Well indicated, it's in the Mouassine part of the Medina.

To stay at the Riad El Cadi is to stay at one of the finest Riads in Marrakech. The interior, with its abundant artwork, is totally astounding. The food, service and ambience make this probably the most enjoyable place I have stayed in the world over.
Lounge around, long after your breakfast is served on your rooftop terrace, sheltering from the sun under your canopy. Sneak out now and again to catch some rays and savour the moment. Come lunchtime, stretch and slowly make your way to the main courtyard and lounge once again in one of the decorated alcoves, while sipping beer and awaiting your freshly made meal.
As evening dawns, slowly make your way to your upstairs, pick up your clothes that you left dirty in the room last night, and wonder if you wore them at all, since they're clean once more. Get dressed, and prepare to be dazzled in Jemaa El Fna, which is just a stones throw away.
