Destination
Fes
The spiritual and intellectual heart of Morocco, home to the world's oldest university and a medieval medina that remains unchanged for centuries.
Fes is a living museum. Its medina, Fes el-Bali, is one of the world's largest car-free urban areas and a UNESCO World Heritage site. Here, the medieval world is still very much alive. Donkeys carry goods through the narrow streets, and the calls of craftsmen echo through the air.
Fes is the place to see traditional Moroccan crafts at their source—from the famous tanneries where leather is dyed in stone pits to the intricate pottery and zellige workshops. It is a city for those who want to step back in time and immerse themselves in the deep history of the Islamic world.
