Chefchaouen
The Blue Pearl of Morocco
Chefchaouen - A Dream Destination for Photographers
Nestled in the Rif Mountains of northern Morocco, Chefchaouen is a paradise for photographers. This small town, known as the “Blue Pearl,” enchants visitors with its blue-washed streets, intricate alleyways, and unique atmosphere. If you’re passionate about capturing the essence of vanishing cultures, this is a place you don’t want to miss.
The Magic of Blue in Chefchaouen
One of Chefchaouen’s most striking features is its endless shades of blue. From deep indigos to soft pastels, every wall, door, and staircase seems to tell a different story. The play of light and shadow transforms the town throughout the day, offering an ever-changing canvas for your lens.
Why So Much Blue?
Legend has it that the blue color was introduced by Jewish refugees in the 15th century, symbolizing the sky and heaven. Others believe it keeps mosquitoes away. Whatever the reason, the result is breathtaking.
