Judy from Brooksville, Florida, United States

Wonderful image, Marie. It seems most of the roof spaces are used as living space also.
It looks very, very crowded and busy.

Bill from Belton, United States

Stunning photo Marie-Helene! It is so crowded and seemingly without order.... it would seem easy to become lost!

@Bill: Yes it is -without order ,without architect's plans and when there is just a little more money, they add a wall or a room !! Thank you Bill !

Joli casse-tête. J'avoue que je serais perdu dans ce labyrinthe!

@Gilles Martineau: Oui mais comme dans toutes les villes marocaines il faut en général 1) descendre et 2) suivre là où il y a le plus de monde et on retrouve une grande place ...!!Merci Gilles !
