Morocco Travelogue | Encountering the Blue of Chefchaouen and the Golden Sands of the Sahara Desert

Hello, everyone. Today we are going to visit the Kingdom of Morocco (Le Royaume du Maroc), a coastal Arab country in northwest Africa. Here, we will encounter the blue and golden sky of the world, including the beautiful cities of Chefchaouen and the Sahara Desert. Morocco, Africa 1. Chefchaouen Old City of Chefchaouen Chefchaouen is a city located in the northwest of Morocco, a North African country. It is far from the hustle and bustle of big cities, and most of the houses' doors, stairs, and walls are painted in the brightest sky blue. This African small town, full of fairy tale beauty and romanticism, is one of the must-visit cities in Morocco. On that day, I happened to pass by an alley where the sunlight only covered half of the wall, making it difficult to distinguish for a moment. Later, upon careful examination, I discovered that the clear blue on this side and the dark blue on the other side were actually one entity. Just like people, we have many facets - confident and happy, insecure and sad. Accepting that we have happiness and also embracing that we will encounter sadness. By the way, when you come to Chefchaouen, you must try the local orange juice. It's freshly squeezed, abundant in juice, and very sweet~ 2. Sahara Desert Sahara Desert, Africa The Sahara Desert is the largest desert in the world after Antarctica, located in northern Africa from the Mediterranean in the north to the Sudanese grasslands in the south. It spans the northern part of the African continent, with a length of 5,600 kilometers from east to west and a width of approximately 1,600 kilometers from north to south, accounting for about 32% of the total area of Africa. In the history of Marrakech, Morocco, it was the starting point of the trade route for caravans crossing the Sahara Desert, and its transportation location was important. Today, our Sahara Desert journey also starts from here. At a glance, a golden sun connects to a golden expanse, deeply sighing at the magic of nature, a masterpiece of divine craftsmanship. "Creating" mountains, rivers, and oceans, as well as creating countless grains of sand. It is very shocking and spectacular. In the Sahara Desert, the most direct means of transportation is the camel 🐫. Slowly strolling through the yellow sand, riding on my beloved little camel, it is also a different life experience~ One of the most unforgettable memories to experience in the Sahara Desert is watching the sunrise, from the moment the tip of the sun appears on the horizon to when it fully rises. Each stage, each different state, always shining on the earth to provide all living things with the light they need - it is both strength and a kind of hope. Wait until the night turns over and it will be a new day, don't be afraid of the imperfect corners in life, sunshine is scattered in every crack!
