Just came back from Morocco, not sure whether to talk about it or not
Recently, I went to Morocco with my best friend and discovered a lot of interesting things. Let's organize the experiences we gained in Morocco.
1, The cost of living in Morocco is really low, shopping won't hurt your wallet
2, The Sahara Desert is a must-visit, but you really need to choose a good tent hotel, otherwise the cold water for bathing at night, cold sleep, the overall experience will drop a lot
3, The SIM card is directly available for free at the airport after landing, just recharge the data and call charges and you can use it
4, Morocco uses European standard plugs
5, Online car-hailing in Morocco is illegal, if discovered, the driver will be beaten by taxi drivers
6, You must bargain when taking a taxi, it feels like the taxis here are all very expensive, if you don't bargain, you will really cry
7, Bring disposable toiletries, folding kettle
8, You must bargain when buying souvenirs, because they will deliberately call high prices when they see Chinese people
9, It's not cost-effective to exchange currency at the airport, it's recommended to go to a Chinese restaurant in the city
10, I think Tajine is quite delicious, but eating too much will get tired, if you worry about not being able to eat the food here, you can bring some chili sauce or pickles
11, If someone kindly shows you the way on the road, you must refuse, because they will ask for tips in the end
12, The weather in Morocco in December is very good, it's sunny during the day, you can wear a piece of clothing when the sun is out, but the temperature difference between morning and evening is huge, it's very cold, you still need to bring some thicker clothes
13, Don't think about coming to Morocco for special forces travel, because it's very tiring. The distance between each attraction is very far, the time spent on the car every day is very long, if someone tells you that you can run through the whole Morocco in 4, 5 days, then this travel agency must be irresponsible
14, The Jemaa el-Fna Square is very lively, with various street performances, especially snake charming, scary, and a variety of delicious snacks
15, Fez is really a maze, without a guide, it's hard to move an inch inside
MERZOUGA MAGIC
The irresistible charm of Merzouga attracts more and more visitors from all over the world, tempted by the experience of the desert.
Once you arrive to your destination, you get to admire the picturesque landscapes, with impressive geological forms.
The dunes of Merzouga, a living picture perfect postcard, offer you a plethora of activities to practice such as the popular sandbording or Amazigh Surfing!

Want to watch the sunset? My treat.
Explore Morocco, and the magnificent scenery of the Sahara Desert is undoubtedly a must-see for every traveler. Merzouga, a village in southeastern Morocco, is the dream gateway to the vast Sahara Desert.
Merzouga is a hidden gem known for its spectacular dunes, tent camps under the stars, and camel rides. If you want to immerse yourself in the desert and feel the primitive and free spirit, this is the place for you.
— Erg Chebbi, a 150-meter-high sand dune, is one of the most majestic sights in the Sahara Desert. At dawn, the golden sand sea glistens; at sunset, the sky is ablaze, and every moment is breathtaking. Even more surprising, this was the filming location for the movie "Lawrence of Arabia," where the traces of history and the wonders of nature intertwine, inspiring awe.
Stroll through the town of Merzouga, where traditional Berber markets, craft shops, and unique restaurants make you feel like you're traveling back to the daily life of the locals. Here, don't hesitate to bargain and experience the authentic "Berber style."
When night falls, desert stargazing camping will bring you an unprecedented shock. Millions of stars twinkle overhead, and traditional Berber music plays by the campfire. This is a visual and auditory feast, a baptism of the soul.
Travel tips:
- Sun protection and warmth: The temperature difference between day and night in the desert is huge. You need to protect yourself from the sun during the day and keep warm at night. Sunscreen, sunglasses, and down jackets are all essential!
- Clothing advice: For women, it is recommended to wear comfortable long pants and sneakers to avoid inconvenience when riding a camel.
- Headscarf and veil: The desert is windy and sandy, so a headscarf or veil can protect you from the sun and dust, making your desert trip more comfortable.

From Sunrise to Midnight in the Merzouga Desert
#desert As dawn broke over the Merzouga Desert, I watched in awe as the sun slowly rose above the golden dunes, casting long shadows and painting the sands in hues of orange and gold. The air was crisp, and the vastness of the desert stretched out before me like an endless sea of tranquility. I climbed a dune to witness the sunrise, the silence only broken by the soft whisper of the wind. The world felt still, almost timeless, as the first rays of light illuminated the undulating landscape.
As the day wore on, the desert transformed under the blazing sun. The heat shimmered off the dunes, creating an almost surreal mirage. I spent the afternoon exploring the vast expanse on camelback, the rhythmic sway of the ride adding to the meditative calm of the surroundings. By sunset, the sky was ablaze with fiery colors, a breathtaking contrast to the cool, deepening shadows of the dunes. Nightfall brought a chill and, with it, a sky filled with countless stars. In the deep, velvety darkness, the Milky Way arched overhead, its brilliance unhindered by city lights. Sitting by the campfire, surrounded by silence and starlight, I felt a profound sense of peace, as if the desert itself were whispering its ancient, timeless secrets.
Sahara desert Morocco
#desert
Exceeded expectations, due to teeth and due to official
The Sahara Desert covers an area of 9.35 million square kilometers, which is almost as large as China's land area. The Sahara Desert does not belong to Morocco, Egypt, Algeria or Tunisia. It does not belong to any country, but to the three regions. 70% of its area is not a desert, but a grassless Gobi. Mezuka, where we are going today, is the most beautiful area in the Sahara Desert. It is the highest sand dune in Africa and the most special sand dune. The desert here is the most beautiful desert in the world. It is red most of the time, but the color of the desert can vary depending on the weather and sunlight, showing different colors, which can be yellow, red, or even pink. The vast desert, the undulating sand dunes stretch to the sky, and the color of the desert at sunset changes instantly, from golden to orange, which is extremely beautiful!

Discovering the Hidden Gems of Merzouga: A Gateway to the Sahara 🇲🇦
#myhiddengems
An Unforgettable Journey to Merzouga 🌅
My trip to Merzouga, a small village in southeastern Morocco, was a journey to a hidden gem that took me to the edge of the vast and awe-inspiring Sahara Desert. Far from the bustling cities, Merzouga offered a tranquil and immersive experience, where the beauty of the desert unfolds in all its glory.
The Majestic Dunes of Erg Chebbi 🏜️
The highlight of my visit was undoubtedly the Erg Chebbi dunes, a stunning sea of golden sand stretching as far as the eye can see. These dunes, some of the highest in Morocco, are an iconic symbol of the Sahara. I embarked on a camel trek at sunset, a quintessential experience that allowed me to fully appreciate the serene and almost surreal landscape. The sight of the sun dipping below the horizon, casting long shadows across the rippling sand, was a moment of pure magic, and I captured a photo of my camel caravan silhouetted against the fiery sky—a true embodiment of the Sahara’s timeless beauty.
A Night Under the Desert Sky ✨
Spending a night in the desert was another unforgettable experience. I stayed in a traditional Berber camp, where the simplicity of life in the desert came to life. The evening was filled with the sound of Berber music, played around a campfire under a canopy of stars. I took a photo of the camp’s lanterns illuminating the dunes, capturing the ethereal glow that made the night feel both peaceful and enchanting. The silence of the desert at night, broken only by the crackling of the fire and the distant howl of the wind, was a profound reminder of the vastness and solitude of the Sahara.
Exploring the Village of Merzouga 🏡
Beyond the dunes, the village of Merzouga itself is a hidden gem worth exploring. The local markets offered a glimpse into traditional Moroccan life, with stalls brimming with vibrant spices, handcrafted jewelry, and colorful textiles. I visited a small gnawa music community, where I was welcomed with open arms and treated to a mesmerizing performance of traditional music. I took a photo of the musicians, their instruments intricately decorated, capturing the joy and cultural richness of this small but lively community.
#SaharaDesert #MerzougaMagic #MoroccanAdventures
Merzouga, with its majestic dunes, star-filled skies, and welcoming community, is truly one of Morocco’s hidden gems. My journey to this remote corner of the Sahara was a soul-stirring adventure that left me with lasting memories of the desert’s unparalleled beauty and the warm hospitality of its people.
Lost in the Sahara
Well, it's really worth it, if you plan your trip well it will be the best adventure trip you have ever taken. What makes it not an empty place are the oases, kasbahs, and sand dunes scattered here and there, the petroglyphs to be found in various places, and above all its inhabitants.

The moment you arrive at the Sahara Desert in a geography book, education forms a closed loop!
When you see the Sahara Desert from your geography textbook with your own eyes, you will truly understand why people call it the 'King of Deserts'. At this moment, education completes its cycle, showing its true meaning. It is at this moment that you will understand the saying, 'It is better to travel ten thousand miles than to read ten thousand books.'
The Sahara Desert formed about 2.5 million years ago and is the world's largest sandy desert, covering an area of about 9.32 million square kilometers, which is comparable to the land area of the United States. It stretches across 10 countries in North Africa. The climatic conditions in this region are extremely harsh, with daytime temperatures exceeding 50°C and nighttime temperatures not dropping below 20°C, making it one of the least hospitable places for life on Earth.

San Mao said: Every time I think of you, a grain of sand falls from the sky, and thus the Sahara was born. Many people are drawn to the Sahara by the stories of San Mao. This time, we visited the Sahara near Merzouga in Morocco, and after checking into the hotel, we eagerly changed into the traditional attire of the local Berbers and couldn't wait to register for a camel ride into the desert. As the sun set, the color of the dunes changed with the light, turning red at one moment and golden yellow the next.
Morocco~ I love the myriad charms of this exotic North African kingdom
I adore the countless charms of Morocco so much!
Not only does it have the Sahara stories of Sanmao, but also the campfire parties under the starry sky in the desolate desert🌌
Not only does it have the universe-famous Riad BE, but also countless courtyards full of birdsong and flowers hidden in the complex alleys⛲️
Not only does it have the blue and white town of Chefchaouen, but also Essaouira, the Windy City bathed in the Atlantic breeze🕊
Not only does it have the snake charmers on the sleepless square collecting tips chaotically, but also the warm and simple Moroccan people everywhere👳♂️
💜Since you're here, don't miss out on the experiences!
Stay in a Riad, take beautiful photos
Courtyards full of exotic charm, terraces overlooking the ancient city, exquisitely decorated rooms, as if stepping into the story of One Thousand and One Nights
Have a blast in the Sahara Desert
Ride camels, sandboard, drive ATVs, climb over dunes... sunrise, sunset, starry sky, and the campfire parties with the Berbers under the Milky Way, drumming, singing, dancing... Just recalling it makes the corners of my mouth lift unconsciously~
Shop for handicrafts in the Medina
Let's just say, no one can leave Morocco empty-handed! Large carpets, leather poufs are hard to carry, but small sheepskin shoes, jewelry, leather bags, wooden items, Sahara sand bottles, who can resist shopping
Try the mint tea
The ubiquitous mint tea~ Those who love it can't stop thinking about it, those who don't like it frown, but when you're tired from walking, you always have to try and see which camp you belong to
#freehotelstay catch my stride if you can 😜, The Sahara dessert is all about thriving and not catching feelings 😁, it maybe dry but it's full of adventures especially a trust steed.
They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder, so take time out and behold the beauty in the simple things in life.

Starry Nights Over the Sahara
Nestled at the edge of the majestic Sahara Desert, Merzouga is a gateway to one of nature's most awe-inspiring landscapes. My journey to this small Moroccan village was driven by the desire to experience the desert in its most unadulterated form, and what I found was beyond my wildest dreams. The highlight? Spending a night under the star-studded Sahara sky, a celestial spectacle unmatched in its beauty.
Embarking on a camel trek as the sun began its descent, the shifting sands glowed in hues of orange and red, leading us to our campsite for the night. The experience of riding through the dunes, feeling small amidst the vastness of the desert, was humbling and exhilarating in equal measure.
The night in the desert was an experience of profound silence and beauty. As darkness enveloped the landscape, the sky lit up with millions of stars, offering a clear view of the Milky Way. The absence of light pollution in the Sahara makes stargazing an unforgettable experience. Wrapped in blankets around a campfire, we listened to traditional Berber music, adding an element of cultural immersion to the natural spectacle.
Practical tips for future travelers: pack warm clothing, as temperatures in the desert can drop significantly at night. Also, bring a good quality camera if you're keen on astrophotography—the clarity of the night sky here is a photographer's dream.
Staying in a desert camp ranged from basic to luxury accommodations, catering to different preferences and budgets. I opted for a more authentic experience, which though basic, did not skimp on warmth and hospitality.
One word of advice is to ensure you book your desert tour with a reputable company. This ensures a safe and respectful experience towards the environment and local culture.
Merzouga and its starry nights reminded me of the beauty and vastness of our world, offering a moment of reflection and connection with nature that remains unmatched. This trip was not just a visit to a destination but a profound journey that touched my soul.
