Apparently
as current as ever is the old Medieval charm of Marrakesh. This is because
today the city of Morocco was named as the city which in the world is the
favourite to be visited.
The
annual Traveler’s Choice Awards was released by TripAdvisor, where millions of
attraction ratings and reviews, hotels, and restaurants were weighed over the
last one year from its users. The top-rated honour was earned by Marrakesh as
the world’s
best destination while the No.1
in the US was claimed by New York City.

such favourite attractions like it’s Jardin Majorelle and its almost 1,000
years old walled medina, Maraakesh moved up from the rankings last year by five
spots. Surging as well and rising by seven spots to the runner up position was
Cambodia’s Siem Reap.
