First impressions

After settling in and freshening up, we ventured out to the Medina to get a first impression - and it is just as you'd imagine it: a labyrinth of winding alleys, bustling with life, shops, people rushing through on small motorbikes or pushing carts, cats in every nook and cranny, beautiful doorways hidden behind inconspicuous bends, salesmen trying to lure you into their shops, the smell of leather and spices here and there. We also noticed men selling turtles, chameleons and stingray eggs - apparently for medicinal purposes or as food. We weren't quite sure but made a mental note to research it.

We finished off the day with a local beer and a delicious chicken-lemon Tajine at Café Árabe, a beautiful restaurant with excellent service that is most definitely worth a visit.Baca lagi
