Prepare for your senses to be slapped. Musicians, snail-vendors and conjurers collide on Djemaa el-Fna, from where ochre-dusted lanes twist to curio-crammed souqs. While the citys thriving art scene and cafe culture generate a cosmopolitan buzz, its the medinas heady scents and sounds that bedazzle, frazzle and enchant. Put on your pointy babouches (leather slippers) and dive in.
If all the world's a stage, then Djemaa el-Fna is the grand finale, thrumming and shimmying to a mash-up of musicians and mayhem. The only option is to join in.

Insider tips to help you find the real Marrakesh
Marrakesh is more about ambience than a mere list of sights to tick off. Delve into the narrow lanes of the medina to explore how Marrakshis are merging modern life with ancient traditions.
