Chefchaoun : Thre Blue City ( Morocco )!

Morocco is famous for its markets full of flavors and colorful cities. There are colorful houses scattered everywhere that look like ink stains on a desert landscape. As for the city of Chefchaouen, it is a real shades of blue and a special jewel.

To enter a city is to enter a truly hectic world every day. There are people everywhere who push themselves during their shopping, the smell of spices are soon to reach your nostrils, as well as those of leather and freshly prepared dishes.

Chefchaouen, on the other hand, is a small haven of peace in Morocco. This sleepy city, in the Rif mountains, does not attract tourists just for its incredible blue houses, but also for the feeling of well-being that one feels when one is there.

According to local residents, the washed blue walls of the houses are supposed to protect against the eyes of the devil. You'll find beautifully decorated doors, fully painted plant pots, stairs that are perfect for an impromptu photo shoot. Enjoy a leisurely stroll in the narrow streets of the Medina and do not hesitate to search the small shops. The fabrics and pottery are still made in traditional ways and the range of spices that you can get here is to make all departments of supermarkets fade.

If you decide to go to visit Chefchaouen, I recommend you follow the paths reserved for goat herds in the neighboring mountains. You will have a magnificent view of the city and the lush valley. A second tip: enjoy a traditional fresh mint tea, in the shade of olive trees, watching stray cats while enjoying the sun.
