Lonely Planet review for 1001 Nights

In the 1950s Tangier's kasbah was the setting for a legendary café called 1001 Nights, which was established by Brion Gysin, the artist who introduce the cut-up writing technique to William Burroughs. The café was famous for its house band of trance musicians - the Master Musicians of Jajouka - who later released a record produced by the Rolling Stones' Brian Jones. Long-closed for renovation, no one seems to know if it will ever reopen.

    This is ridiculous. There is NOTHING to see. Not accurate.

    bklisenbee does not recommend this,

    This is why you can't rely on Lonely Planet for accurate information. The 1001 restaurant closed PERMANENTLY in 1958 and it isn't going to reopen at all.
