Highlights of Fes
Welcome to Fes, one of Morocco’s most fascinating and historic cities. Known as the country’s spiritual and cultural heart, Fes is famous for its ancient medina, traditional crafts, and deep-rooted traditions. From winding alleyways to beautiful madrasas, this city offers an unforgettable journey into Morocco’s past and present.
Begin your exploration in Fes el-Bali, the oldest part of the city and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This vast medina is one of the world’s largest car-free urban areas. As you wander through its narrow streets, you’ll discover hidden courtyards, colorful markets, and historic homes. Moreover, every turn reveals something new, making it a true adventure for curious travelers.
A must-see landmark is the Al-Qarawiyyin University and Mosque, considered the oldest continuously operating university in the world. Founded in the 9th century, it represents the intellectual legacy of Fes. In addition, the surrounding area is filled with bookshops, traditional schools, and peaceful corners worth exploring.
Next, visit the stunning Bou Inania Madrasa, one of the few religious buildings in Morocco open to non-Muslims. Its detailed tilework, carved wood, and calm courtyard showcase the beauty of Moroccan craftsmanship. Furthermore, it’s an excellent place to pause and admire the artistry that defines the city.
For a glimpse into daily life, head to the famous Chouara Tannery. From nearby terraces, you can watch leather being dyed using traditional methods passed down for generations. Although the colors and activity are intense, this experience offers a powerful insight into one of Fes’s oldest trades.
Take a break from the busy medina by visiting Jnan Sbil Gardens. These peaceful gardens are perfect for a relaxing walk among palm trees, fountains, and shaded paths. Additionally, they provide a refreshing contrast to the lively streets nearby.
Food is another highlight of Fes. The city is known for its rich and aromatic cuisine. Try traditional dishes such as pastilla, a sweet and savory pie, or slow-cooked tagine filled with spices and local ingredients. In addition, enjoying mint tea in a traditional riad is a simple pleasure not to miss.
As evening arrives, Fes becomes calmer and more atmospheric. Soft lights illuminate the medina, and the call to prayer echoes across the rooftops. Meanwhile, rooftop restaurants offer beautiful views and a relaxed setting for dinner.
In conclusion, Fes is a city rich in history, culture, and timeless beauty. From its ancient medina and historic schools to peaceful gardens and flavorful food, it delivers an authentic Moroccan experience. Explore Fes with your Holiday Houseboy and discover a destination where tradition, learning, and everyday life come together in a truly unforgettable way.
