In the shadows of the Majorelle Garden, Marrakech


When in Marrakech, Morocco:
"Don't miss a stroll in the Majorelle Garden where Yves Saint-Laurent's ashes now lie. An elegant and touching little paradise on earth which houses an Islamic art museum installed in a blue-walled Art Deco villa."

People of the Medina, Marrakech




















Entrance to the Ben Yusseff University in the Medina, Marrakech


They are not very pleased the inhabitants of the old town: Medina in the Marrakech to have their photos taken. Understandable as all the tourists seems to enjoy putting cameras of all sisez and mobilphones into their faces for their "souvernir photos".

Guess I was just another visitor then making my small photo set walking in the Old Town: Medina and many of the souks, March 2012. Camera Canon G1X
