Morocco Travel|Enter the Blue Fairy Tale World Chefchaouen

It takes about 4 hours to get here by bus from Fez. Most travelers will buy the CTM Moroccan state-owned bus, which costs about 75 dirhams. I bought a private bus ticket for 50 dirhams, which was much cheaper! Staggering towards the blue pearl of Morocco, Chefchaouen is a mountain town located between the Rif Mountains in Morocco. Chefchaouen means corner in Arabic, and the city is like a diagonal corner set in the mountains. Why is Chefchaouen painted blue? A local friend told me that when the Jews immigrated here, they painted the walls blue because they wanted to differentiate themselves from the white towns in Andalucia, Spain. For Jews, blue represents the sky, as if God and heaven are always there; some people also say that blue can reduce temperature and repel mosquitoes. In any case, the blue here has been integrated into the life here, and the various shades of blue are just like in the sea. #NorthAfricaTravel #Morocco #mytravelhacks
