Stop At: Essaouira Ramparts, Rue Skala, Essaouira Morocco
We will go from Marrakech towards Essaouira it takes about 3 hours to reach the city of the wind.
When we arrive at this town located on the Atlantic coast of Morocco and three hours from Marrakech, the calm of the place is even strange to us, so used to the bustle of the big Moroccan cities. Once we set foot in calm Essaouira we contemplated around us the blue porticoes of the houses, the simplicity of the bazaars and the seagulls, hundreds of seagulls that fly over the town where Orson Welles shot part of his film Othello in 1949, a sign that indicates the artistic influence of a town in which jazz and Arab music concerts regularly meet in local cafes.
We will walk through its Medina, which was named a World Heritage Site in 2001. We will also visit some souks and especially visit some art galleries to show you the urban and colorful art of this fishing city.
