App happy? You will be! We’ve indicated GPS coordinates for 54 important buildings and locations within the Medina.
CONVENIENT
The map is lightweight, pocket-sized, and unfolds easily to reveal the double-sided spread. The main square – the Jemaa El Fna – is duplicated on both sides for easy referencing. To ensure maximum longevity (from constant unfolding and folding), we have used the very best mapping paper available – it’s superlatively German.

‘NEW’ TOWN
A small insert map shows the main streets of Gueliz. This new town district of Marrakech was designed and built by the French in the early 1900′s. Plus, there’s another mini map showing the positional relationship of: the Medina, Gueliz, Hivernage and the airport.
