Fez

The beautiful Medina of Fez is a walled city built in the 9^th century, which was once the capital of Morocco and remains a highly spiritual site. The compact medina is littered with monuments from the 13^th and 14^th centuries, when Fez was the most influential city in Morocco, these include beautiful mosques, palaces and madrasas. Fez also offers an authentic experience of medieval life, with streets too narrow for modern transport and traditional ways of life living on in workshops, tanneries and craft shops which still flourish to this day. The narrow streets and authentic atmosphere make Fez an intriguing place to visit.
