About Fez

Fès är Marockos gamla kejsarstad och kulturella hjärta, med en enorm muromgärdad medina av gränder, souker, garverier och medeltida koranskolor.

Fes el-Bali, den gamla medinan, är ett av Unescos världsarv och en levande medeltida stad där åsnor och handkärror fortfarande bär varor genom smala gränder. Dess mest kända port, Bab Bou Jeloud med sina blå och gröna kakel, leder in i ett virrvarr av souker, fontäner och gamla karavanserajer.

Top-ranked sights in Fez: Medina of Fez (Fes el-Bali), Bab Bou Jeloud (Bab Boujeloud), Volubilis.
