Name: Jemaa El Fna
Where: Marrakech, Morocco
If the likes of billionaire tycoon Sir Richard Branson could visit Marrakech and rave about it for years now, then this should definitely be on your traveler’s list. It’s almost like going back in time – the daytime bazaar is full of traditional entertainers like snake charmers, exotic animals and male dancers performing their native dance routines. Beverages like fresh juices and leather water bags are also sold like they used to be for centuries now. After sunset and religious prayers are done, storytellers, fortune tellers, dramatists, magicians and local doctors with herbal medications take their place in the souk. The streets are filled with local delicacies from kebobs to fresh fruit desserts and refreshing snacks. The entire experience is truly remarkable.
