Marrakech, Exotic Morocco
Marrakech (Arabic: مراكش), a former imperial city, was founded in 1070 by Emir Abu Bakr ibn Umar as the capital of the Almoravid Empire. The city is home to mosques, palaces and gardens. The medina is a densely packed, walled medieval city dating to the Berber Empire, with mazelike alleys where thriving souks (marketplaces) sell traditional textiles, pottery and jewelry. A symbol of the city is the Moorish minaret of 12th-century Koutoubia Mosque. #Marrakech, #exoticmorocco, #morocco.
