Holidays in Morocco, land of oranges

If you - so a big fan of the new, the time will inevitably begin to experience some difficulties in selecting the next channel. Presentation of the most popular tourist countries have already taken place. I want something new. Of course in the world, Australia, Jamaica, Seychelles, etc. However, we opted for a more affordable, but also the exotic and yet has become a familiar area. Is one. This is in North Africa, or rather, one of the oldest African states - the Kingdom of Morocco. The second half of March and April - the perfect time to visit. All flowers, bright green. Very hot, not yet a sweltering summer. However, on the Atlantic coast of the temperature rarely rises above 28 degrees even in August it is the most famous beach of Agadir in Morocco, where it flies a direct flight from Moscow in just six hours. This country has been with us for years, "Oranges from Morocco," Vasily Aksenov associated, and the famous American film in wartime, "Casablanca." Today, the city of Casablanca and the sleek look with my own eyes and the taste of Moroccan oranges on the tree. Morocco is famous for its variety of landscapes. These compact and rugged mountain cliffs, expanses of sand dunes with fantastic (one third of the country is the Sahara) and forests with evergreen shrubs, olive rushing waterfalls. Tourists are most often show a picturesque waterfall near the village Ueud. In Africa, Morocco is one of the powers of the most popular tourist attractions. Europeans are now regular visitors. Above all, love the French, who is reminiscent of the kitchen, to yours. It is very natural. Finally, in 1912, France built a protectorate over Morocco, which were active before the Spanish and Portuguese conquerors. The UK has achieved independence 1956th So the French language, Spanish is widely spoken in the region. Their English in a hotel, restaurant, shop to explain. And now a little more about the places of the kingdom. Closer to the coast of the Mediterranean are two fascinating cities - Fez (hat "Fez" from there) and Meknes with its famous gardens of the palace. On the Atlantic coast near Agadir Marrakech. The ancient capital of the vast former empire. Large commercial and industrial center. However, an oasis of medieval relic. Once in the medina (the "Old Town"), says the time has stopped. People who walk in costumes. Waterboy, snake charmers, dancers, healers, the most common public street. No bill that the court of the 21st Century. Most Famous Buildings - .. Bay ("Palace of Beauty") and the dome of the golden apples in the past 40 consecutive years in the palace of El Badi dance festivals are held annually in the open air, in Berber musicians playing the flute, drum and flute. Here you can see people with blue skin. It is a Touareg. Skin color (which, however, there is an explanation), are required to ensure that they are enveloped by a child in the indigo-dyed clothing. And because the color is here, there are clinical implications of Rabat, the capital of today .. . Located on the Atlantic coast in the seventeenth century, the city has attracted adventurers from all types of court, the unenviable title of the pirate capital of the biggest changes in the fate of Rabat with the relocation of Andalusian Muslims connected -. . the Moors. Among the historic buildings are the Royal Palace, the mausoleum of Mohammed V, 55 meters high minaret - Hassan Tower, the ruins of the mosque of Yakub al-Mansur, the Kasbah fortress UdayyaGorod Casablanca, also served in the old shelter pirates, today the country. She was dressed in business. with modern buildings, banks and offices next to the masterpieces of Arab-Berber architecture. Morocco is proud of the Hassan II Mosque, where you can pray at the same time, 25,000 people, while another 80 000 to remain in the seat next to him. From 200 meters is the tallest minaret in the religious structure in the world. between Casablanca and Agadir, Essaouira city populated with well-preserved fortifications. Once the slave traders sailed here to buy at the local slave market of the product line. Perhaps the shadow of the past at the legendary guitarist Jimi Hendrix base. The hippies in the sixties, lived in Essaouira and wrote their own songs. A kind of "fall Boldino". So, after describing a circle, back to the famous resort (300 days of sunshine a year), with its trees, sandy beaches, pine and eucalyptus. There are parts of the desert. This is a noisy and crowded. There are training opportunities with jet skiing, windsurfing, fishing, deep water. With someone like that. Sereno family vacation without epinephrine can guarantee its guests a quiet Tifnita located 40 km south of Agadir. For children there is a substantial discount. When the soul is alive and exotic prints to go on a journey of a Berber village. These villages, mud huts consists entirely of a lot in the hills and mountain areas. The Berbers (the descendants of the original inhabitants of Morocco), tourists and brings a regular income value. This is a friendly smile, and as far as possible, to keep you entertained. If something like a mint pilaf and treated. What about local food? Strong, rich in spices. The national dishes are very popular, "couscous" (grits, lamb, chicken, raisins, onion sauce) and "Candy" (which is completely different to what we are accustomed to the warm cake stuffed pigeon, chicken and almonds) . Pork, as it will be for Muslims, because the food is rejected. Addiction to alcohol, but you can buy alcohol. In any case, take home a bottle of orange liqueur. Consumed in large amounts of strong coffee. Drink lots of cottage cheese and yogurt, good thirst quencher. Morocco - real sweet. Try the pasta, especially marzipan cake. However, if you save the figure, it is better to focus on very cheap seafood here. Boiled, fried right, steamed before your eyes. Then crave fried shrimp and eel. Hotels usually offer breakfast and dinner, in a case of restaurants in the city can dine at the dealers. Or even skip lunch. Why excess calories? Hotels consciously competing in the interior and service. The area - a tropical oasis, with multi-cuisine restaurants, bars, pools and gyms. This is a four star hotel. Five stars is often found in ancient oriental palaces and luxury blind. Is it safe to stop and the three stars. No luxury, but comfort is very European. About the price of the trip to Morocco. If you are traveling to the town of Agadir (11 days, 10 nights) during the school holidays in March, will pay more than 1000 €. However, the lowest price since mid-April with the 870th may remember that this is a half-board, and excursions are included. Agree that the prices are moderate. Byutitaym
