Desire for sun in the middle of winter? Marrakech seduces travelers from around the world
Wanting to trade the down jacket for a light jacket? The international press endorses Marrakech as one of the five best destinations in the world to escape the gloom of January. Alongside Costa Rica or Oman, the Ochre City stands out as the ideal refuge to start the year gently.
It is a reliable value that does not waver. While Europe shivers, Marrakech offers a climate blessed by the gods at the beginning of the year. With temperatures ranging between 18 and 22 degrees during the day, the city allows you to enjoy generous sunshine without suffering the oppressive heat of summer. It is the perfect time to stroll through the alleys of the medina without sweating.
The selection highlights the richness of the Marrakech experience: the sensory effervescence of the souks and Jemaa el-Fna square contrasts with the tranquility of the Majorelle Gardens or the Menara. January is the perfect month for contemplation, a mint tea in hand, facing the ramparts gilded by the setting sun.
The proximity of the Atlas, whose snow-capped peaks are outlined on the horizon, offers an additional promise of adventure for those who wish to explore the surrounding Berber villages.
