Asilah, Morocco |
The International Cultural Moussem of Asilah (Asilah Arts Festival) is an annual cultural extravaganza which brings life and color to this city and has been doing so since 1978. The town is a platform for cultural dialog and exchange between different countries through conferences and seminars. Each year a guest country is invited to share its culture through mural paintings, engravings, music, dance and poetry.
One of the things I like most about this town are its murals! Select artists are invited to paint their works of art on the whitewashed walls of the medina every year. The best ones are kept for years to come. Here is an example of one of them.
