Today we recommend 6 things that you must do when you visit Morocco.<\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Hike through the desert\" height=\"197\" src=\"https:\/\/eurochange.es\/uploads\/blog\/old\/desierto.jpg\" title=\"Hike through the desert\" width=\"350\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Take a hike through the desert<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>On a camel, by jeep, on foot or by quad. The desert is something you can not miss. There are many companies that are engaged in organizing such trips for you to get lost (in the figurative sense of the word) in the sea of \u200b\u200bsand. There are <strong>day trips or experiences up to a week<\/strong> in which you will&nbsp;feel like a real nomad.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Les Bains d'Azahara\" height=\"248\" src=\"https:\/\/eurochange.es\/uploads\/blog\/old\/les bains dazahara.jpg\" title=\"Les Bains d'Azahara\" width=\"350\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Visit the Arab baths<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>What better way to relax after your experience in the desert, than visiting a genuine Arab bath: saunas, swimming pools, massage.

You can <strong>buy handicrafts, household utensils, clothes and accessories, spices, taste the local cuisine<\/strong>. Don&rsquo;t rush through it, relax and enjoy the smells and tastes that you can find. And remember that in Morocco haggling is standard. It is not about trying to give away what you want to buy, but to pay the right price.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Hassan II Mosque - Casablanca\" height=\"502\" src=\"https:\/\/eurochange.es\/uploads\/blog\/old\/mezquita.jpg\" title=\"Hassan II Mosque - Casablanca\" width=\"350\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Visiting a mosque<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There are mosques that can not be visited. They are places of worship and do not support the entry of tourists. However, there are others that have <strong>visiting hours<\/strong> so that visitors can stay marvel at these buildings. <strong>For women it is important to wear a headscarf<\/strong> because you have to cover your shoulders and to enter some of them you also need to cover your hair.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Eat typical food<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Moroccan cuisine is not just <strong>kebab<\/strong> and <strong>couscous<\/strong>. Although these are delicious, you will find a wide variety of dishes and ingredients: refreshing <strong>salads<\/strong>, savory <strong>stews<\/strong> like Tajin, <strong>soups and purees<\/strong> with vegetables and legumes, <strong>pigeon <em>pastilla<\/em><\/strong> with a mix of sweet and savory baked dishes like <em><strong>Mechui<\/strong><\/em>. They are usually very aromatic dishes that combine the use of different spices. A festival for the taste and smell.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Tajine Stew\" height=\"525\" src=\"https:\/\/eurochange.es\/uploads\/blog\/old\/tajine.jpg\" title=\"Tajine Stew\" width=\"350\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Drink some tea<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Tea is a long tradition in Morocco. You can have a tea in<strong> tea shops and cafes<\/strong>, but it is also possible to get invited to a <strong>welcoming tea in hotels<\/strong>, riads, restaurants, shops. It is a blend of green tea, mint and sugar. It may be <strong>accompanied by sweets<\/strong> made from dates, honey, almonds and pistachios.<\/p>\n<p>We hope these six proposals have inspired you to plan your next visit to Morocco. Remember that in <strong>Morocco will need to pay in Dirhams<\/strong>. Not all establishments accept credit card payments. If you need Dirhams, <a href=\"https:\/\/eurochange.es\/en\/exchange-rates\/moroccan-dirham\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Buy Moroccan Dirhams now\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>you can buy right now on our
