is the maze to end all mazes. The only way to experience
it is to plunge in head first, and don't be afraid of getting lost - follow the flow of people to
take you back to the main thoroughfare, or pay a local to show you the way. It's an adven-
ture into a medieval world of hidden squares, enormous studded doors and colourful souqs
(markets). Remember to look up and see intricate plasterwork, magnificent carved cedar-
wood and curly Arabic calligraphy, while at your feet are jewel-like mosaics.
