travel to morocco & explore morocco
About travel :Travel is a relatively rare part of most people’s lives, especially if it’s overseas. That’s you need to be totally gung ho about your choice of foreign soil to set foot on.
Why Travel to Morocco??
Just a short hop south of Spain is a quantum leap of cultural shift when you step onto the soil of Morocco. There is plenty in the way of good, solid western influence to help you keep your equilibrium, but equally there is a land of unspoilt, some would say canned exoticism that offers a rare, in fact a thousand rare glimpses into a world that simply no longer exists.
Just one example of this is the Aït Benhaddou, a former fortified settlement situated on the inland caravan route, and preserved now as a UNESCO International Heritage Site. It has also been a favourite for movie sets over the years, having been featured in such epics as Lawrence of Arabia, Ridley Scott’s Gladiator and Alexander, to name but a few. All of this has tended to add impetus to the preservation of the site, which is both evident and gratifying.
Morocco is also unexpectedly a major bird watching destination, with other facts and features of interest to the nature traveller, and with geographic landmarks such as the Atlas Mountains, and the Sahara Desert itself. Both of these are reasonably accessible, and both, in combination with the cultural sights, sounds, smells an tastes of Morocco, tend to make for a very worthwhile and rewarding travel destination, either as a one-off, or a beginners course in long range African travel.
