Marrakech est une ville située dans le centre du Maroc au pied des montagnes de l'Atlas. Elle est surnommée « la ville rouge » ou la « ville ocre » en référence à la couleur rouge d'une grande partie de ses immeubles et de ses maisons, ou encore "Bahja" en raison de sa convivialité et de son hospitalité.
Over the last three full years, the mildest months are January, February, November — highs between 22 and 27 °C, and few rainy days.
