Walking in Marrakech

Marrakech's walled medina is a car-free maze of souks, palaces and riads centred on the Jemaa el-Fna square. A guide turns its confusing lanes into one of the great walks of the world.

Navigation. Map apps struggle in the medina. Note landmarks, and be wary of people offering directions who may expect payment or lead you to shops.

Traffic. Scooters, bicycles and handcarts use even the narrowest lanes. Step aside when you hear "balak!" (watch out).
