Essaouira Review

The Old Town of Sovila is a thousand-year-old ancient city of North Africa, built by the sea, and has been a must-see place for soldiers since ancient times. The ancient city is full of old buildings and ancient streets. There are many craft shops that gather local characteristics. You can go shopping and buy some small gifts. It is very meaningful to stay for a memorial.

The relatively clean Medina, with white as the main tone. There are many shops on the street, mainly selling various crafts, such as colorful ceramic cups, carpets, leather products, and moderate prices. I just couldn't find the bathroom and trash can after a few hours of shopping.

[City Wall] The khaki yellow city wall is the old city. Maybe because it is close to the sea, the city wall is particularly high, and you can see the city wall in a few steps. Unlike the old city of Fez, Shavan, Marrakech, it seems to be wandering inside, and you can't meet the city wall. [Alley] It feels very simple. The main street sells a lot of life, such as morning snacks, daytime soup and juice, as well as meat stalls and vegetable stalls; the side street is mainly selling souvenirs. The small alleys linking the two are mostly narrow, and I am afraid of going wrong. [Graffiti] Maybe more idle foreigners from Sovira, graffiti is more artistic than other Medina, combining the strong contrast color used in Africa, and forming a huge contrast with the blue and white walls.

ESSAOUIRA, Sovilla, a coastal city of just 70,000 people on the Atlantic coast of southwestern Morocco, means "pictured" in Arabic. This is a place full of historical vicissitudes, 5,000 years, has been ruled by the Berbers, Phoenicians and Romans, occupied by the Portuguese, and finally colonized by the French, and now the old wheat field, this small city that combines European and African architectural styles, White and blue are themes that always remain. White houses and blue doors and windows, whitewashed or mottled, noisy markets in miscellaneous alleys, colorful handicrafts sold on the streets, people of all skin colors and nationalities in the square quietly drinking coffee, here, there is an inexplicable sense of historical integration. Of course, I believe that for everyone who comes here, the most impressive and favorite should be the beach that is close to 10 kilometers long, the starting point of the port is small, but as long as you go a long way, you will suddenly open up, and the beach will immediately become wide and magnificent. In the morning, on the rooftop of RYAD, I quietly looked at the white seagulls swaying over the city, full of a rich Moroccan breakfast, so it started the day, really good! BONJOUR, ESSAOUIRA!
