Sierra Nevada
Container ship in front of the Sierra Nevada mountains
Welcome to Casablanca
we didn't believe the stories about the smog and the smell ... until we arrived. Ugh!
The Kasbah Mosque
As a non muslim tourist you are not allowed to enter the Kasbah mosque (also called el-Manouria or Moulay Al Yazid mosque) but you can enjoy the building from outside. It was built in 1190 and although not as spectacular as the famous Koutoubia mosque it is nevertheless a prime example for the architecture of the "red" city.
Saadian Tombs
We only had 5 hours to visit Marrakesh but at least managed to visit the Saadian tombs and the Bahia Palace
Saadian Tombs II
Another peek into the building
Fuchsia
There were some rather nice flowers in the gardens surrounding the tombs
