Marrakech known as the "Red City" or "Al Hamra," is a city in southwestern Morocco, near the foothills of the Atlas Mountains. It is the second largest city in Morocco after Casablanca. Places of interests are centred to a rather small zone, starting in the north with the suuqs, continuing through the town square of Jemaa L-Fna with its crowd of storytellers, musicians and the Koutoubia mosque which minaret is visible from practically anywhere in Marrakech. Going beyond this, the Menara gardens, by young Marrakechians considered as the most romantic place in town, is high up on the list.

Many budget airlines offer flight to Marrakech from major cities in Europe. One of the cheapest fare was Ryan Air, flying directly to Marrakech from Weeze Airport in Germany in four and a half hour.
