There is evidence of Moroccan architecture which dates back to 110 BC. These are the massive Berber brick buildings made of compacted clay. The architecture was influenced by Islamization during the Idrisid Arab dynasty, by Moorish exiles from Spain, and by French architecture after France declared its protectorate over Morocco in 1912.

Moroccan style is a new trend in decoration, with roots in Moorish and Moroccan architecture.

Moroccan architecture adorns royal palaces, modern buildings and hotels, but shining with the most famous Moroccan decoration – lanterns. Even just one Moroccan lantern can completely transform a room.

"No luggage" – we travel around Morocco and are about to stay in one of the most beautiful hotels – Riyadh. Let the story begin now.
