Stroll Through the Medina
The Medina, or Old City, is the perfect place to get lost. Roam the streets and take in the architecture and culture of the beautiful destination. Stroll through the markets for some cheap treasures, like spices, meat, rugs and silks.

Roam through exotic plants and trees, lush streams and pools and enjoy the intense beautiful blue used on many of the structures. The garden is around $10 to enter, and the museum only around $3.
