Doors 326 – Doors of Marrakesh, Morocco, January 2025 (Part VI)
Things have returned to something resembling normal this week after our wonderful week away in Madeira. I have found a little time to resume with some doors of Marrakesh. These doors were photographed during a solo doorscursion in what was the only wet morning of our trip to the red city.
At first, when I look at these I think that it is all a bit repetitive, and then I see that each of these doors is unique. Nothing mass-produced here. It is as if the industrial revolution never happened. I hope you enjoy this week’s selection.
More doors (sounds Tolkeinesque) from Marrakesh next time. I wish you a happy weekend.
If you have made it this far, you probably like doors, and you really ought to take a look at the No Facilities blog by Dan Anton who has taken over the hosting of Thursday Doors from Norm 2.0 blog. Links to more doorscursions can be found in the comments section of Dan Anton’s weekly Thursday Doors post.

I think it is that pink-red colour that defines the old city.

Stephen, I love how you choose beautiful leading lines in your photos, superb photos. I enjoyed sensing the mood that the remnants of rain on the stone and walls created, in particular, Tinsmith’s Square.
My favorite capture is what I imagine (as I always like to say) is iconic of my notions of Marrakesh, since I have never been.. and that favorite being said, my favorit is the Keyhole gateway, Route Sidi Boudchich. I think I notice what looks like a little side pocket door or cupboard in the wall on the inside left side?
Thank you, Stephen.

Well spotted on that side pocket door. I love the iconic keyhole doorways, as you say they represent Marrakesh in our imaginations.

Great collection, Steve. I like the reflections and the added depth of color the wet ground brought to some of them. These are so varied in style and perhaps purpose. I see what you meant in your description.
