LGZIRA THE MAGIC BEACH REVISITED [08:21]
One of Nature's wonders in Morocco this beach is well hidden from the passers-by on the way to Sidi Ifni. There are several restaurants where the road ends just above the beach. The name is invariably spelt Lgzira and Legzira when written in Latin alphabet. It soothes senses and calms spirits. There are always surprises as when we were quite cold at end of June and almost wanted to have swim in the middle of winter.

The two main attractions may hardly be visible at fist hidden in sea mist or protected by hazy sunshine. I have two other clips from previous visits but this one is more comprehensive and I had no heart to edit the footage.

The name Chefchaouen comes from "chauen", which is Spanish for horns, and refers to the shape of the two mountains overlooking the settlement. But it's not its strange name, the beautiful and unique handicrafts sold by local craftsman, or the delicious goat cheese that attracts the majority of tourists to Chefchaouen. It's the blue-painted houses and buildings of the city, a tradition inherited from the former Jewish inhabitants. In the Bible, Israelites are commanded to dye one of the threads in their tallit (prayer shawl) blue, with tekhelel. This was an old natural dye, processed from a species of shellfish, but in time its production collapsed and the Jewish people eventually forgot how to make it. But, in honor of the sacred commandment, the color blue was still woven into the cloth of their tallit. When they look at the dye, they will think of the blue sky, and the God above them in Heaven. While the Jewish population ...
