Old Medina of Casablanca

I love walking through the streets of the Medina neighborhood in Casablanca. Many of its visitors only venture out to Bab Marraksh, Marrakech's front door, where they sell imitation designer goods and cheap souvenirs. If you walk a little further, you'll find a popular neighborhood. Medina is a poor neighborhood in Casablanca. Many people say it's unsafe, but that's not true, don't worry. Children play in the street, old people chat in parks, there's a village feeling inside of a big city. Medina was abandoned by the rich families due to the complete lack of hygiene. Some of the older homes don't let any light in, so the houses tended to stay fairly damp, which allowed disease to spread.
