Description
Marrakesh has a rich architectural heritage, and much of it suffered damage in Friday's quake, the strongest ever to hit the North African country. But due to the earthquake, riads in the historic medina which didn't suffer any damage are also suffering losses because tourists are cancelling their trips, say business owners.
"We're having a lot of cancellations, especially for riads like ours that don't have swimming pools," says Mehdi Benyahya who owns a riad in the historic medina. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
