Morocco offers great geological variety and a wide range of climate conditions. You can find everything from sunny beaches and fertile oases to winter sport resorts like those found in the center of Europe.
Morocco has always been and still is the gateway to Africa. You can experience the traditional lifestyle and oriental charm of Fes and Marrakech, but you can also find the modern cities of Casablanca and Rabat (the capital), or the famous beach resorts of Agadir.
Considering its history and culture, its nature and geography, Morocco is much to complex to describe so briefly. There is no way to describe the green of the Middle Atlas in spring or the sounds and smells of the Medina in Fes or Marrakech and certainly no way to describe a sunset in the Sahara desert.
