Discover Morocco’s stunning blue city
Chefchaouen is situated in the heart of Morocco’s Rif Mountains.
Chefchaouen (sometimes called Chaouen) is relaxed, with very affordable accommodations, and above all, quite stunning to look at. The streets and most of the buildings in the old part of town (Medina) are painted a most brilliant sky blue.
Chefchaouen offers its visitors the charm of a city which has preserved Arab Andalusian arts and traditions.
