			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I received these <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/ilyani/sets/72157606575017859/" target="_blank">Morocco</a> postcards from Fadwa in Egypt back in 2006 :)) and these are the only postcards from that country in my collection&#8230; I don&#8217;t know if I will receive more in future, it&#8217;s not very likely as I don&#8217;t particularly know any Postcrosser from Morocco. Anyway, <strong>Maroc</strong> is French for Morocco, and <strong>Maghribi</strong> is its Arabic name.</p>

<p><em>&#8220;Dunes de Merzouga&#8221;</em>. Or the dunes of <strong>Merzouga</strong>.. what are dunes anyway?A dunes is a sand hill formed by the wind, usually in desert regions. Among the dunes there are several oasis and you can easily get water just by digging a little.</p>

<p><em>&#8220;Cascades d&#8217;Ouzoud&#8221;</em> or the <strong>Ouzoud Fall </strong>is a <strong>110m</strong>-high waterfall located in the province of <strong>Azilal</strong> in Morocco. This is sure an amazing view you can see in a country where there are also hot deserts!</p>

<p><em>&#8220;Koutoubia&#8221;</em> is what written on the card, I am not sure if it has anything to do with this horse card but it&#8217;s actually the name of the <strong>Koutoubia Mosque</strong>, the largest mosque in <strong>Marrakech</strong>. Seen here is the <strong>69m</strong>-height minaret of the mosque, which was constructed in <strong>1184-1199</strong>.</p>

<p><em>&#8220;La Medersa ben Youssef&#8221;</em> or <strong>Ben Youssef Madrasa</strong>, was an Islamic college in <strong>Marrakech</strong>, founded in the <strong>14th century</strong> and used to be the largest madrasa in Morocco. It was closed in 1960 and reopened to public as a historical site in 1982.</p>

<p><em>&#8220;Jardins de Majorelle&#8221; </em>or The <strong>Majorelle Garden <span style="font-weight:normal;">is a botanical garden in Marrakech designed by a French expatriate artist <strong>Jacques Majorelle</strong> in </span>1924<span style="font-weight:normal;"> during the French colonization in Morocco. The garden was owned by designer <strong>Yves Saint-Laurent</strong> since 1980, and houses Islamic Art Museum of Marrakech that keeps Laurent&#8217;s collection of North Arfican textiles, ceramics and jewelry.</span></strong></p>
