From my time in Marrakech, I am intrigued to discover even more reasons to return to the city of mystery and discoveries.

Chapters deal with where to get the best orange juice, the charms of the souk, listening to renowned traditional gnawa musicians, staying in a hotel hidden in a palm grove that's also a rare bird sanctuary, and discovering the secret museum where everything is for sale.
