You can now realize from where the tiles in Portugal came. The “Moors” (os Mouros) who were in Portugal for 700 years were basically Moroccans who invaded the Iberian peninsula.

What a smart comment coming from a portuguese brother. Spaniards are saying that morocco was created in 1956. They clearly didn't study history. Morocco was created in 789, 5 dinasties ruled the country. The dinasty of the current king is since the XVI century. The Koutoubia, la giralda of Sevilla and the Hassan tower of Rabat where made by the same architect from Marrakech during the almohad empire that conquered Iberia. We have the same blood and sometimes the same faces. The tiles of Fes are 1000x more difficult to make than any type of tiles that you can find in europe.

Portugal has a lot of Arab influence, in its southern part of the country (south of Lisbon, especially Alentejo and Algarve), this influence is very visible in the architecture and tiles, as well as some words in Portuguese that are of Arab origin.

Morocco is not an Arab country. Morocco is an amazigh muslim country, who unfortunately when taking its independence from European powers decided to take on the Arabian identity and complete ignore its native one until lately. Which , truthfully, is a bad mistake to use religion to change one’s identity and completely against Islam. (Unless if some practises go against Islamic practises or monotheism) Fortunately, in Morocco, thousands of people still speak Tamazight and the culture is still the foundation of the country. Ps. Fun fact, Arabs don’t understand Moroccan darija aka. a creole language that we call today “Arabic”, but really derived from a mix of tamazight, Arabic, Spanish and French languages. Have a good day! I hope to visit beautiful Portugal one day❤ Moroccans are Africans and not middle easterners. This completely makes sense since it’s the country in the most extreme west further from the “Arab” world, which in reality is the Muslim world.

Islamic architecture is different.... Islamic architecture in Morocco is different from Islamic architecture in Egypt. Islamic architecture in Syria and Lebanon is different from Islamic architecture in Turkey. Likewise, Islamic architecture in Iran is different... There is no The relationship between them.... For the record, Islamic architecture in Turkey is less aesthetic... because the Turks are an uncivilized people and they did not care about civilization...they only cared about the military. Because Anatolia did not have an Islamic civilization... unlike Arabs, Persians, and Berbers They created art, architecture, and decorations..... You have Iran, Morocco, the Levant, Iraq, Egypt, and Central Asia, which are the largest countries in terms of aesthetic Islamic architecture.

I love seeing the architecture, colors, spices, markets. I feel as though I would be stressed in that environment, so I enjoy it from professional travelers like you! Thanks

I get the impression that the real living life-the aspect that is charming and valuable-in Marrakech takes place behind doors. The vibe in the public spaces seems so uninspired. It’s like no one in them profoundly wants to be in them. It’s a dead town. Busy but dead.

Good morning everyone :D

Glad you enjoyed navigating Djeema El Fina and its Medina. I was surprised to see you had an easy walk inside the market. I found Djeema El Fina very very busy and was hassled so many times even by small children. That was Sept. end of summer recommended as best time to travel (May and Sept.) according to some experts….Just like in Cairo in the pyramids of Egypt, all you could say was no or “laa” and you continue your walk. Yes, this souk is I think the oldest and largest. I didn’t really enjoy it much because of the constant hassling but lots of different crafts you can buy from metals to wood and the different spices. However in Fez, the Tala’a Kebira souk though it’s a 12 century market, I enjoyed observing their life unchanged like the walls that surround more than a thousand years way before the European Christians arrived. Their mode of transporting goods is still by mules and donkeys. It was fascinating and I was transported in time there. . Hope you went to Fez and Casablanca too. Marrakech is rich in culture with its historic charm. Our tour guide said, it’s where most French people go to enjoy their spring to summer holidays and I agreed. Their resorts, hotels and alleyways are just alluring and enchanting ❤️

it’s Moroccan architecture. Morocco is the civilizational center of North Africa and Fez is the cultural capital of the Maghreb. Our architecture is completely different from what is found in the Middle East. just look at the difference between mosques in North Africa and the Middle East
