If it rains

Jamaâ el-Fna – Musée du Patrimoine ImmatérielMedina – Jemaa el-Fnaa · Go before you spend an evening on the square: the displays explain the halqa storytelling circles and music you will hear later. A rain-proof hour right on Jemaa el-Fnaa.Les Bains de MarrakechKasbah – Bab Agnaou · The gentle, private version of a hammam: book a steam-and-scrub package after a morning in the Kasbah, ideal on a cold or rainy afternoon.Musée de la Musique (Mouassine)Medina – Mouassine · Time your visit for the 18:00 mini-concert in the painted douiria, then walk two minutes to the Mouassine fountain as the lanes empty. Check the current concert days on the site.

Also in this area

Koutoubia MosqueKoutoubia · The 12th-century minaret that still sets the height of the old city. Mosques are closed to non-Muslim visitors, so walk its gardens at dusk, when the stone turns rose and the call to prayer carries over the square.Jemaa el-FnaaJemaa el-Fnaa · The square changes shape through the day: juice carts in the morning, food stalls set up at dusk, music circles after dark. Eat at a numbered stall with a posted price and agree prices before photographing performers.
Bahia PalaceRiad Zitoun el Jdid · A 19th-century vizier's palace of courtyards, painted cedar ceilings and zellige. Go at opening: by late morning the tour groups fill the main court.
