Riad Africa, Traditional Moroccan riad in the Medina of Marrakech, Morocco.

Riad Africa is a traditional Moroccan house in the Medina with hand-painted wooden doors, fine tile mosaics, and carved woodwork throughout. A central courtyard with fountain and plantings forms the heart of this residential property.

The house dates to the 19th century and follows Andalusian architectural traditions that shaped Morocco during earlier dynasties. Its structure reflects handcraft traditions passed down across generations.

The courtyard with its fountain and planted areas shows how riads were designed as retreats from the medina's activity. Visitors can observe how the family uses the space and experience daily rhythms within a traditional household setting.

The property sits within walking distance of the famous Djemaa el-Fna square and souks, providing easy access to the old town. Visitors should expect narrow medina streets and allow time for exploring the surrounding area.

The family serves authentic Moroccan meals on the rooftop terrace overlooking the city. This personalized dining experience combines traditional flavors with views across Marrakech.
