    Tourism  
    Morocco's dazzling mosaic of African, Arab and Berber cultures, with a dash of European influence, is at once strange and romantic, alluring and discomfiting. It's little wonder that Morocco has regularly drawn seekers of the exotic.

    Colorful markets, Marrakesh and Fez, antiquities, beautiful architecture, shopping, beaches, diverse scenery, religious shrines, great food, golfing, skiing, water sports, casinos, Atlas Mountain scenery and Tuareg culture are Morocco's attractions.
