We had a day with no plans. We woke at the riyad and had another excellent breakfast and wandered off to museums. We went to the Museum of Intangible Cultural Heritage, because what an interesting name!
It was well named, dedicated to capturing the history of the feeling that Jemaael-Fnaa square provides.
Founded in 1070 as a military muster point, it developed into the hub of Marrakech over time and ... well you can wiki it. That's a lot of ground to cover. But I learned a ton
LooovvvveeeeI liked these judgy cows.
From there I learned of the Perfume Museum which was.. well, meh.
Then off to Museum Mondes des Arts... dude. jewellry and clothing from all reaches of the middle and far east from times long ago.. it was really cook seeing how trade routes influenced design style. Here's some bling photos. Also, it was air conditioned and that became important as the day hit 40 degrees.
so much bling and detailed explanations in the QR codes.that's a necklace...
jewelled gun stock because.. fabulous.
Dinner was street food.. the "sandwiches" were incredible.Burnt my face in this but it was worth it!
