Morocco is a very interesting country. For me it was very alien and a lot like being transported back in time. You will see people from all walks of life on the streets, but beware of the venders, for they stalk tourist in an attempt to sell their goods. It would be an understatement to stay they are very pushy. I traveled to Morocco in the spring of 1997.

Morocco's
long struggle for independence from France ended in 1956. The
internationalized city of Tangier was turned over to the new country
that same year. Morocco virtually annexed Western Sahara during the
late 1970s, but final resolution on the status of the territory remains
unresolved. The
green five-pointed, linear star in the center is known as
Solomon's seal. The green represents the traditional
color of Islam. (CIA Factbook) |
