Four Cool Facts About Marrakech

Marrakech prevails over other Moroccan cities as the unofficial cultural center thanks to the winding alleys of its vast medina, contrasted with the modern malls and restaurants of the Nouvelle Ville.

Cutting the palm trees

The law on palm trees formally prohibits cutting them, under penalty of very heavy fines (MAD 5,000 per palm, or approximately USD 550 each).

Golfing destination

Marrakech is becoming one of the leading golfing destinations. It offers more than 12 golf courses and has received many awards since 2015.

UNESCO World Heritage Sites

An impressive number of masterpieces of architecture and art in the medina of Marrakech are recognised to have an outstanding universal value.

Marrakech’s specialty dish

The ‘Tangia’ is a traditional meat-heavy dish only prepared in Marrakech. It’s often cooked in a terracotta urn with sheep meat and some spices and ingredients.
