Morocco and its riches. With its oriental charm and its site worthy of the Thousand and One Nights, the nature and landscapes of Morocco amaze at first sight. Nature in Morocco is one of the causes of this enchantment: between palm trees, oases, mountains or even the Sahara desert, to visit Morocco is to discover a very rich natural heritage.

But first, let’s take a look at the must-sees of Morocco. Although Casablanca is the most populous city, the capital of Morocco is Rabat, and there is plenty to visit there. For example, the Hassan Tower, which is Rabat’s most famous monument and a masterpiece of traditional Moroccan art.
The city of Fez is also important because it is considered the cultural capital of the country. The old town, called the Medina of Fez, is a veritable labyrinth dotted with souks and traditional restaurants. You can spend hours discovering every nook and cranny and have fun getting lost in this maze.
Finally, the cities of Marrakech and Casablanca are emblematic of Morocco. In Marrakech, you navigate between the souks and mosques, including the Koutoubia minaret, symbol of the city. Not far from there is the Jemaa el-Fna square, famous for being the busiest and liveliest square in Marrakech. In Casablanca, the white and blue buildings are typical of the city, including the Hassan-II mosque which stands on the port.

But beyond the city, it is the nature and landscapes of Morocco that make the charm of the country. The beaches, for example, delight tourists and locals alike. For surf enthusiasts, Taghazout beach is the El Dorado for beginners or experienced surfers. For those who simply want to admire a beautiful panorama, Essaouira Beach, which stretches for six kilometers, has been named one of the best beaches in Morocco. And finally, for wilderness worshipers, Dragon Island Beach in Dakhla is perfect with its white sandbanks and clear water. All tourists will find what they are looking for, because Morocco is full of gems with transparent water and fine sand.

But the nature and landscapes of Morocco are also the oases, these mirage-like areas of vegetation located in the middle of the desert. Among the most famous and beautiful is the Tinghir Oasis, which stretches over thirty kilometers. The emerald green of the vegetation contrasts there with the earthy colors of the desert, which makes it a perfect place to take pictures out of the ordinary and emblematic of the landscapes of Morocco.

The country is also full of national parks, for example the High Atlas National Park which covers 49,000 hectares. The landscapes are very varied and typical of Morocco because the area covered by the park stretches from the north, with a more humid climate and conducive to an abundance of plants, to the south, where drought is more present.
Regarding the mountains, they are numerous because they occupy more than two thirds of the Moroccan territory. One of them, Jebel Moussa, offers a magnificent panorama over the Strait of Gibraltar, and rises to more than 850 meters. All hikers appreciate Morocco, which is full of mountains to climb as well as breathtaking views.

Whether you like architecture, photography, hiking or surfing, Morocco is an enchanting country that will delight all visitors.
