Morocco

Morocco is an exotic and dreamy place, located at the intersection of Europe and Africa, just across the border from Spain. Morocco experienced Arab conquests, French and Spanish colonization, and finally gained independence in 1956. The Berber culture of the indigenous Berbers of North Africa, the Islamic culture brought by the Arabs, and the modern cities built by French colonists have created the unique cultural customs of Morocco, the North African continent. In addition to the charming natural scenery, unique history and culture are also a major reason why Morocco has become an emerging tourist paradise.
