Inspired by Olivia Rodrigo’s Morocco Trip? Add These Places to Your Wishlist
Olivia Rodrigo’s been dodging the studio and teasing her fans with pics from Morocco because who needs to record an album when you can chill in Marrakech, right? If you, too, want to escape the grind and soak up some serious vibes, here’s your ultimate guide on where to go in Morocco.
1. Marrakech: Jemaa el-Fnaa Square
Jemaa el-Fnaa Square is the pulsing heart of Marrakech. It’s the ultimate cultural hub, where you’ll find snake charmers, souvenirs, fortune tellers, and tons of street food.
At night, the whole place transforms into an open-air restaurant and performance space. The chaos here is pure magic.
2. Chefchaouen: Blue Streets
Chefchaouen in Morocco is all about that aesthetic life. Every building in the city is painted in different shades of blue (even the streets!), making it one of the most Instagrammed spots in Morocco.
It was originally painted blue by Jewish refugees in the 1930s, believing it symbolized the sky and heaven. Wander around and you’ll feel like you’ve stepped into a painting, quiet, peaceful, and oh-so-picturesque.
Fes: The Chouara Tannery of Fes
The Chouara Tannery of Fes is straight-up iconic. Leather’s dyed in massive vats with natural dyes like indigo and henna. The whole scene feels like a snapshot from the past, making it one of the most real, colorful parts of Morocco.
4. Merzouga: Erg Chebbi Dunes
Merzouga is home to the Erg Chebbi Dunes, some of the tallest sand dunes in Morocco. These dunes can reach up to 500 feet high!
The sunrise and sunset here are unreal, imagine the sky lighting up in a thousand colors. You can take a camel ride into the desert and camp under the stars in luxury tents in The White Camp. It’s a bucket list experience and one of the most surreal places you’ll ever visit.

5. Ouarzazate: Ait Benhaddou
Ouarzazate is the Hollywood of Morocco, and Ait Benhaddou is its star. This ancient fortified city has been in Game of Thrones, Gladiator, The Mummy, and countless other films.
The mud-brick kasbahs (fortresses) here date back to the 17th century, the fact that it’s still standing strong in the desert is nothing short of epic. You can walk through it and feel like you’re part of a movie.
6)Marrakech: Ben Youssef Medersa
Marrakech’s Ben Youssef Medersa is like stepping into a dream. This historic Islamic school is a stunning example of Moroccan architecture, with intricate tilework, carvings, and a peaceful courtyard that feels like a hidden oasis. It’s one of the most beautiful spots to snap pics, plus it’s a perfect escape from the bustling life of Morroco.
So while Olivia’s avoiding the studio, you can follow her lead and escape to Morocco for an unforgettable adventure. Whether you’re exploring vibrant souks, chilling in the desert, or snapping pics in a blue-painted city, Morocco has something for everyone. Time to make your own getaway.
