I had “pinned” this all blue town on Pinterest several times over the years. I didn’t even know the name. When I looked up places to visit in Morocco, I saw on the Free People blog that visiting the all blue town was a must: Chefchaouen. I realized it was the same place I always wanted to see and made it a priority on my trip to Morocco.
I wrote my tips for Chefchaouen here and wrote about it on BravoTV.
I have so many photos to share that I decided to do a little photo gallery post here. I have a Pinterest plugin added so if you hover over any image you like you’ll see a “pin it” button pop up and you can pin the image to your travel board.
The all blue town on Pinterest is really THAT beautiful.
These stairs are Mohammad’s house, the owner of our guesthouse, Aurberge Dardara and they are definitely the coolest stairs ever. Wouldn’t you want to live here?
Baskets are the “thing” to buy here in Morocco! I came home with 5! One if for my mom. They make great gifts if you have the space in your luggage.
You will see so many cute cats like this little monkey while in Chefchaouen.
It’s definitely a place to get some photos taken!
And drink mint tea while shopping for rugs. They will always make you tea!
These white rugs are used as marriage capes but these days people buy them as rugs, even Moroccans. They are beautiful with their fringe and sequins. The very best deal we got on a super large one was 60 dollars. Later, people called us liars when we tried to get that price and we never got an offer below 100. The deal we got was in Fes, 4 hours from here.
They are famous for Argan oil and make soaps and other bath products.
Like India, colorful dye is everywhere.
Try to eat lunch at a rooftop restaurant so you can see the views below!
Artwork always makes the best souvenir.
This alley with the plants is very famous and is seen ALL over Pinterest and Instagram. there were 5 other girls wanting to take photos here. Wonder if they were bloggers too!?
All this blue inspired me to paint my furniture at home and redecorate my house!
Antique shopping is popular here but beware not all is antique and some is from China and even India.
I spy a little kitten up above… do you?
