The islamic architecture is quite rich in terms of patterns and although not much nowadays, we still have some of it here in Portugal, since you guys decided to spend some "vacations" here centuries ago :-) That is also noticeable in many of our words starting with "al".
Great photos!! I half expected Indiana Jones to jump into one of the street scenes. You certainly found some rich colours and interesting angles too. Nice work!!
Hi Elizabeth Thank you for always showing the beautiful side of the Moroccan culture. You are a great and genuine ambassador of Morocco... Kind regards
Do they still make beautiful tiles in Morrocco? Do people building new houses also use some of these lovely tiles?! In India, the artisans are fewer and fewer and its only few of the old, dilapidated vernacular houses that have exquisite flooring.
