Assilah, less than an hour's drive from Tangier, is one of Morocco's gems. It's also lucky to be the home town of former Foreign Minister Mohamed Benaissa, who has organized a world famous cultural festival there every summer for 32 years. In fact, there's much more to it than culture. It goes on for most of the month and it's like a relaxed Davos, with dignitaries flying in from every part of the planet to spend a day or two participating in panels discussing global issues, attending concerts, dining with friends and strolling on the beach.
