Magical Marrakech

Before going to Marrakech, I had a specific vision for this magical city.  I had envisioned markets with fresh vegetables, fruits, unique spices, local specialties, traditional Moroccan houses, artists painting on the streets, alleys of mystery, and friendly, kind people. This vision came true on my visit to the beautiful Marrakech....

I walked into Jemma El Fina and enjoyed traditional soup, eggplant, and fish.  The Moroccan mint tea, the dates, nuts, the shops with natural products from the Atlas mountains. Kicking the soccer ball with the local kids, stopping in each market having tea with the locals, it reminds me of  Istanbul a bit. Yes, it is it own culture and  not the same, but similarities between the ancient history of the streets, mosques, palaces, and markets. 
 
This is an awesome picture i am proud of it=)
