📣 Traveler notes

Morocco is a diverse country featuring attractions from the High Atlas peaks and Sahara sand dunes to historic sites, lively souqs, and coastal towns. It offers a unique cultural experience characterized by Islamic African vibrancy and proximity to major European hubs.

  • Ramadan is the most significant annual event; during this fasting period, many businesses may slow down or close for lunch.
  • Eid al-Fitr marks the end of Ramadan, typically resulting in a week-long closure and increased domestic travel.

About this holiday

The Green March was a mass demonstration organized by the Moroccan government and military in November 1975. Its goal was to pressure Spain to cede the disputed Spanish Sahara to Morocco, leading to Morocco's subsequent control over most of the former territory.
