Marrakesh is a city full of wonders and surprises. There is plenty to experience here, from the city's bustling Djemaa el Fna square to the Jardin Majorelle botanical gardens and the mighty Bahia Palace. But what could be more fun than discovering a city's lesser-known gems? Here is a list of the 5 most fun and lesser-known sights in Marrakesh.
- Check out the Rue Bab Doukkala market
Marrakesh's Rue Bab Doukkala market is not just about shopping, but also about the Moroccan cuisine's delicious aromas and flavours.

You will see stalls full of colourful olives, dried fruits like dates and figs, and huge piles of spices like saffron, cumin, and ras el hanout.

- Relax in the La Palmeraie gardens
Visit the green oasis of La Palmeraie. These gardens are located just outside the city. Take a leisurely stroll and take some beautiful pictures. This is the perfect place to take a break from the hustle and bustle of Marrakesh's city centre.

Stroll through the historic Mellah district, which used to be the Jewish part of the city. Admire the old synagogue and explore the lively market.
- Admire the craft workshops in the medina
Learn more about the traditions of Marrakesh by checking out the workshops in the medina. Here, local craftsmen use centuries-old techniques to create beautiful handmade products. For example, visit a zellij workshop, where colourful mosaic tiles are cut and laid by hand. Or, take a look at a tannery. This is where leather is dyed and made into bags, shoes, and poufs.
