If you want me to recall an impressive tourist destination, I would say \u2018Morocco\u2019 without any hesitations.<\/p>\n

Morocco, a country that in the north-west of Africa, the Sahara desert in its south, the Atlantic Ocean to its west, north across the Strait of Gibraltar and Spain. This unique geographical environment makes Morocco win some reputations: \u2018the Pearl of Africa\u2019, \u2018North Africa Garden\u2019, \u2018the cool land under the hot land\u2019.<\/p>\n

With my curiosity about the life and food of African, Arabic and Islamic art, my friends and I embarked on a seven-day journey.<\/p>\n

Our tour took seven days and explored four cities: Marrakech, Chefchaouen, Asilah and Casablanca.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Marrakech<\/strong><\/p>\n

Marrakech is called the Red City. When I climbed up the roof of a photography museum in the Medina during the sunset period, I saw red walls, halal style architecture and tall green trees echoed with each other, which was stunning and spectacular.
\n<\/p>\n

The Majorelle Garden -Arabian Impressionist Garden in tropical regions<\/strong><\/p>\n

Here you can see the blending of blue house and green cacti.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 <\/p>\n

The museum of Marrakech<\/strong><\/p>\n

When we went to the museum, the Islamic art ceramic exhibition was being held. Many pieces of ceramic fell on the ceiling, the use of space and light made the style elegant and impressive.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Joseph Theological Seminary<\/strong><\/p>\n

There will be surprises when you concerned about its luxury carved and mosaic tiles.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Chefchaouen- blue town\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you are an\u00a0ailurophile you must come here. The cats in the blue town are very elegant and love to be photoed.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

Blue is The colour of the artist.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Asilah- white city near the sea<\/strong><\/p>\n

It is a small white town, also it is my favourite city in Morocco.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 <\/p>\n

Casablanca<\/strong><\/p>\n

Hassan ii mosque<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n

The flying time of U.K to Morocco take three and a half hours, it is a perfect place for a week vacation.<\/p>\n

When I was back from Morocco, I always missed the landscape, colour of city and art\u00a0atmosphere.<\/span><\/p>\n

Morocco is an amazing and magical destination that you always want to come back.<\/p>\n
