Indeed Sex in the City has left New York for majestic Morocco. Spectacular photographs from its North African set will leave an impression on viewers of this sequel film. Filmed in the Souks of Marrakech, actresses Sarah Jessica Parker and Cynthia Nixon were spotted pounding their heals through Marrakesh's Djemaa El Fna Square, according to the UK Daily Mail Online.
Writer/director/producer Michael Patrick King says, "I wanted the audience to have a big, fun vacation with the girls on the screen." The essence of the movie is for the girls to spend one decadent week in Abu Dhabi, with all expenses paid. Since the movie could not actually be filmed in Abu Dhabi, it was filmed in Morocco.
