In spring and summer, Bougainvillea red, orange, purple, hot pink cover and the walls around the city. Banana trees are used for ornamental plants.

The deserts and mountains are still wild and undeveloped. The desert areas are as beautiful as the dream of the people – the dune areas, and the deep blue sky. The mountain remains intact and spectacular, inhabited by the Berbers who still live in traditional ways. The wide variety of people and lifestyles, are also part of the Moroccan landscape. People dress with interesting and different clothes. Many languages can be heard all day. People living in all types of lifestyles mix and interact anywhere.
