Official Coat of Arms
A shield bearing a crossed pair of haggling hands over a coiled snake charmer's basket, flanked by two mopeds mid-collision, and crowned with the Koutoubia minaret silhouetted against a suspiciously photogenic sunset.
TripAdvisor Review
★★★★☆ 4/5
"Spent four hours trying to find my way out of the medina and ended up buying a lamp I didn't want from a man who called me 'his friend' seventeen times. The Jemaa el-Fnaa square at night is genuinely magical, all snake charmers and orange juice stalls, right up until someone tries to put a monkey on your shoulder for a fee. Riads are gorgeous, hidden behind unmarked doors like the whole city is one giant speakeasy, but good luck getting a taxi to actually use the meter. Still, the tagine was the best thing I've eaten in years so I'll allow it."— Barry Fenwick, Solihull
Property Listing
Nestled at the foot of the magnificent Atlas Mountains, this vibrant property offers unrivalled access to a bustling marketplace economy, twenty-four hour entertainment, and a charming maze-like street layout that guarantees you'll never grow bored of finding your own front door.
Twinned With
Ikea — Both are labyrinthine retail experiences designed to disorient you until you accidentally buy a rug and a scented candle you never knew you needed.
Supporting Evidence
The Jemaa el-Fnaa square has been the beating heart of the city for nearly a thousand years, and UNESCO officially recognised it as a 'Masterpiece of Oral and Intangible Heritage', which is a very polite way of describing organised chaos.
