Beggars and Hustlers
Marrakech, Morocco's vibrant and bustling city, is a sensory overload of colors, sounds, and scents. Its medieval medina, a labyrinth of narrow alleyways, is home to the famous souks (markets) where locals and tourists converge. Let’s delve into the intriguing world of Marrakech’s beggars and the lively market scene:
Djemaa El Fna Square:

All streets eventually lead to Djemaa El Fna, the legendary plaza at the heart of Marrakech.
-
Acrobats, snake charmers, fortune-tellers, and Berber musicians compete for attention here.
-
Drummers create a rhythmic beat from noon to night, while men in flowing robes offer games of chance.
-
As the sun sets, dozens of food stalls appear, serving tagine and flaky pastries to hungry travelers.
