Interesting Cities to Visit in Morocco
MARRAKECH
At the foot of the Atlas Mountains lies Moroccos most famous metropolis, Marrakech, best known for its vibrant, bustling square and market called Jemaa el-Fnaa. Day and darkness, this is where youll find desert musicians, snake charmers, storytellers, acrobats and more ready to entertain and profit from tourists passing by, as successfully as countless food stalls and artisans selling local crafts. Escape the hustle and bustle and step inside the tranquil Menara Gardens, complete with a 19th-century palace, reflecting pool and olive groves backdropped by the Atlas Mountains on the horizon. Must-see sights also include the Koutoubia Mosque, the largest mosque in Marrakech, and the Bahia Palace, an architectural masterpiece.
FEZ
Located in the northeastern part of the country, Fez is often considered the cultural capital since it has the best maintained traditions and old-world charm. The center of it all is the Fes El Bali, the walled medina, with its narrow, pedestrian streets that house artisan workshops, mosques and an 11th-century tannery still using ancient methods of tanning and dying leather.

Marrakech Salón
In a very actual way this kitsch-retro cabaret/gallery is responsible for turning República de Cuba road in the Historic Town Center into an alternative to the usually poppin’ Zona Rosa LGBT neighborhood. And this alternative is legit.
Even though you’ll still catch them playing Katy Perry and the pink overload is in occupied effect, you’ll also listen them blasting Radiohead and The Pixies throughout the night. “They have to,” says Victor Jaramillo, one of the owners of this gay club that stands alone in that it makes sure it has a unique flavor to it. Unlike many gay clubs in Mexico City, Marrakech Salón doesn’t play into the representative gay stereotypes that hold plagued Mexico for so long. Here, the concept is to have entertainment and be able to laugh at oneself - something that’s not all the common in the LGBT community.
This spot is different even if just for the location. It’s on one of the less polished streets in downtown Mexico City. However, as night falls, the neons that adorn Marrakech illuminate the surrounding crumbling buildings in a way that’s almost glamorous.
There’s no cover, no doorman, n
Gay Marrakech
Homosexual acts are illegal in Morocco, and can be punished with a heavy fine or imprisonment for up to three years. However, although no one will dare utter it out loud, male homosexuality is actually relatively common. No, the men you see holding hands are not a queer couple (platonic same-sex warmth is freely shown), but there was a moment when the city of Tangier had quite a gay scene. Today, an increase in male prostitution has led to a rise in harassment by authorities, who follow local men and beat facts about what happened in the hotel room out of them. It's crucial that you be quiet if you meet local men anywhere in the country. Lesbians shouldn't run-in any problems, as the only annoyance would be having to explain to the macho Moroccan men that you're into the ladies -- everyone seems to think there's no such thing as a lesbian here.

Guide Marrakech Bar Gay
Marrakech has granted its name to Morocco; if it is not the capital, this imperial city, called "The pearl of the South", remains with Fez the historical heart of Morocco. With its ideal location, with equal distance from the atlantic coast and the first dunes of the Sahara, Marrakech is also the gate of the Moroccan South. Its ambiance, colors and its climate enchants its visitor with a genuine convert of scenery.
As eternal as the snows on the highest peaks, as memorable as the Atlas Mountains, as steeped in history as the palm trees are rooted in the earth, the perfect proportions of the Ménara pavilion may be contemplated, mirrored in the quiet still waters that stand before it, you cannot overlook Marrakesh.
The most worthwhile tourist traps are unhurried inside a rather miniature 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 is visible from practically anywhere in beyond this, the Menara gardens- by immature Marrakechians considered as the most romantic place in town- is high up on the list.
