Southern Morocco is not only known for its royal cities with their ancient urban civilization but also for the majestic Atlas Mountains, endless beaches, its desert, and its oases. Author Hartmut Buchholz guides travelers into the heart of the old towns with their maze-like souks, into caravanserais, to mosques, and fountains. He takes travelers into the desert, into green valleys, to tranquil coves, and top surfing spots. Right from the first pages, Hartmut Buchholz highlights attractions, hiking destinations, and beaches in the chapter "Southern Morocco Personally - My Tips," and answers questions about travel safety and Islam. The current edition naturally includes the new museums of Marrakech, two of which are dedicated entirely to the theme of water, while the third is dedicated to Yves Saint Laurent. Additionally, he shares some tips in the DuMont Travel Pocket Guide.
