Three Moroccan destinations were prominently featured in the World Index Top 10 Attractions in Africa, with the kingdom leading the list with some of its most renowned tourism spots, according to a recent X (formerly Twitter) post by the tourism platform.
Topping the list is the Jardin Majorelle. Located in the Red City of Marrakech in the Kingdom of Morocco, this place is known for its bright blue buildings and impeccably maintained botanical garden.
