Morocco is an amazing country of contrasts; it perfectly combines untouched nature and ancient architecture, the original traditions of ancient tribes and skills of local craftspeople.
On the one hand, Morocco is washed by the waters of the majestic Atlantic Ocean, and on the other, there begin endless sands of the Sahara. Between the ocean and the desert, there are the Atlas Mountains, accessible for skiing in winter.
It should be mentioned that in Morocco you can find lots of wonderful souvenirs.
