Marrakech is Morocco's Red City, a warren of souks, riads and palaces gathered beneath the 77-metre Koutoubia Mosque minaret at the edge of the Sahara. Petra is Jordan's rose-red city half as old as time, where the Treasury facade was carved straight into a sandstone cliff by the Nabataeans around the 1st century AD.
