Djemaa El Fna
We are travelling to Morocco with my parents in February and are going to take them to Marakech for the first time. I feel they have to experience Djemaa El Fna while there but my husband and I were there on a Tuesday last September and it was really quiet. I've been before during the summer and its been amazing, bustling and busy with lots going on. I'm aware tha it may not be as hectic in February but what day of the week would be the best day to go? They are staying Agadir so we would only be going to Marrakech for 1 night and I would like to get it right if possible.
That's a good choice. Djemaa Elfna is really a stunning place to give it a go. Hope you enjoy as i'm sure you will .
Grab a front-row or balcony seat at a café alongside the Djemaa, and watch the drama unfold. As the sun travels across the sky, orange-juice vendors make way for healers and henna tattoo artists, who scoot over for snake charmers, astrologers and acrobats. Around dusk, the storytellers begin their epic tales, and cooks cart in the makings of 100 restaurants specializing in barbecued everything, tasty cooked salads and steaming snails.
For the ultimate dinner theatre, look no further than the Gnaoua drummers, male belly dancers and Berber musicians surrounding the Djemaa dining action.
