48 hours in the life of Marrakesh

Article Abstract:

It is particularly worth visiting Marrakesh, Morocco, in Feb, when the weather is warm and dry. The main parts of the city are Medina, the old walled city, and Nouvelle Ville, the new town. Most visitors will focus on Medina, where there are many bazaars and medieval buildings. There are many inexpensive hotels around the central square of Djma Al-Fna, but the best hotels are the Club Med and the Mamounia, close to the centre of Medina. It is worth spending time wandering around the markets, where stalls specialize in leather, slippers, metalwork, perfumes and spices.

From Marx to Marks & Sparks

Article Abstract:

The city of Prague, Czech Republic, seems to be rapidly entering the modern age, and now has many international retailers. However, there are still reminders of other times and cultures. Attractions include the 19th-century State Opera, the Meisel Synagogue, the medieval Charles Bridge, St Vitus's Cathedral and the Straahov Monastery. It is also worth visiting the small cobbled lane of Novy Svet, where there are tiny 16th-century houses.
