Things to do and places to visit in chefchaouen, Morocco

Things to do and places to visit in chefchaouen, Morocco


Chefchaouen (also called Chaouen) is located at the heart of Morocco's Rif Mountains.

It's a quite and peaceful place with natural beauty. While marrakech is a red-painted city, Chefchaouen's old medina is a sky blue one.

From the bus station, take a taxi to drop you in the heart of medina (that's their terminus anyway). If you don't have a return ticket. it's a good idea to book one in advance whilst at the bus station (CTM is the recommended bus company).

Accomodation is both readily available and affordable. Mint tea may not be your favorite if you're coming from North America (I know what you're thinking, yes it's sweet). Tea is good for your colechstrol and blood circulation. And Chefchaouen is the place to get over it and try it.

Women can also try a henna artist to decorate their hands and feet with beautiful tattoo desings.

The Plaza Uta el-Hammam,at the center of medina, is the ideal place to relax in your first day, drink some mint tea and do some people watching.

Remember, small of a place is morocco, the people at each city are different in their manners, lifestyles and even looks. Being at the mountain and close to Spain accounts in part for this diversity.

Most hotels can organize or customize guided hiking trips for visitors (you may have to ask). Both traditional Moroccan cuisine and European food is plentiful at the nearby cafes and restaurants.

The outskirts of the medina where the Defense Walls still stand to tell their stories can be tempting to backpackers for a stroll. Be careful not to stroll too far though as beyond those walls is where Hashish and marijuana are grown.

If your trip does not include going to Fes or Marrakech, Chefchaouen's trinkets and other souvenirs are a savior for budget travelers for their cheap prices yet great designs.

Casa Hassan Hotel is one of the nicest hotels to stay in chefchaouen. Not the only nice one, but one of them.
