Thursday doors – 16 October 2025 – Marrakesh doors

Doors 328 – Doors of Marrakesh, Morocco, January 2025 (Part VIII)

I have been a little all over the place lately, and just returned from a few days fishing in Cornwall. I also have to go in to the office tomorrow, something of a rarity, so I am getting ahead of myself by writing this post last night.

These are the last few doors in Marrakesh from an early morning doorscursion on my own, during a short period of light drizzle. These street doors here resemble many of the doors I have already featured, but include some open gateways as I approached the Souk area. Next week things get a little bit different, but in the meantime I hope you enjoy this selection:

I guess this is about the halfway stage of doors from Marrakesh, and so far all of the doors have been residences or shops. The next few selections will be from sites and places of interest that we visited during our stay, although the odd street door will be making appearances from time to time. May I wish you a fabulous 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 am Stephen. I live in Bristol, UK. I decided to shorten my profile...to this: Wildlife, haiku, travel, streetart, psychogeography and my family. Not necessarily in that order.

  1. I’ve enjoyed this series from Marrakesh, Steve. I like the doors and the entrance surrounds. I like the variety, especially the tiled entrance. I also like the photo of the entrance to the carpet shop with all the people in line.

    I hope the fishing was good.

  2. A wonderful gallery, Stephen. Great views of city life and the markets. I love all the contrasts in these doors where the modern, the ancient, function, and a bit of style coalesce. For example, a modern bike and chair in front of what looks like an ancient doorway.

    My favorite is that very narrow door; I wonder its purpose? It also seems taller than usual. Intriguing.
    Great photos of the archways. I like the large city wall gateway, Rue de Berrima with the Love, Morocco sign/display. A great idea.

    Thank you for the great tour, Stephen. I thoroughly enjoy your shares and the virtual tour of Marrakesh. Cheers.
