๐ฒ๐ฆ Marrakech 3-Day Travel Guide
๐จ Accommodation Riads (traditional Moroccan houses with central courtyards) are mostly in the old town (Medina). We stayed at Riad Kasbah & Spaโgood service & steps away from the souks, but New Town is more modern, spacious, and cleaner (highly recommended!). ๐ Transport Old Town: Walk everywhere. Old โ New Town: Use inDrive (Uber doesnโt work) or hail a taxi. ๐ฐ Currency MAD (Moroccan Dirham)โwithdraw at airport ATMs (many places in the Medina are cash-only!). ๐๏ธ Attractions ๐ New Town Highlights ๐ฟ Jardin Majorelle ๐ โ Stunning blue garden (must-see!). YSL Museum ๐ โ Fashion & art loversโ paradise. ๐ก Both require online tickets (closed Wednesdays). ๐ Old Town Sights ๐ฐ Le Jardin Secret ๐ด โ Lush tropical garden with fountains. Medresa Ben Youssef ๐ โ Small but intricately beautiful (cash only). Bahia Palace (skipped) / Badi Palace (too ruined, skip!). Souks ๐๏ธ โ Overwhelming but fun (bargain hard!). Djemaa El Fna ๐ โ Chaotic yet vibrant night market. ๐ก All walkable within the Medina! ๐ฝ๏ธ Food & Drinks Local dishes (Tagine/Couscous) get repetitiveโtry once! ๐ New Town has better (and cheaper!) "Western" options. ๐ด Old Town Eats ViaVia Marrakech ๐ โ Average chicken tagine. Cafe Clock ๐ฅ โ Great shakshuka (North African eggs). Mandala Society โ โ Fancy cafรฉ vibe. โ New Town Picks Kartell Kollektiv ๐ธ โ Strong lattes & iced ginger lemon (cash only). Le Tire Bouchon ๐ท โ Affordable French bistro. KFC ๐ โ Crispiest fried chicken (maybe desperation talking?). Final Tip: Stay in the New Town, explore the Medina by day, and enjoy Jardin Majorelle + YSL Museumโtheyโre worth the hype! ๐ตโจ #MoroccoTravel #MarrakechGuide #SoukShopping #TravelDiaries #RedCityVibes
