Fes or Fez - Most Ancient Imperial City in Morocco

by Zlur - last update: Dec 12, 2006

Minaret & Fes medieval city
FES is the most ancient Imperial Capital and most complete medieval city of not only Morocco but of the Arab world! FES is a place that takes you back in time; with it's cobbled dusty paths, simple life and preffered donkey transportation as opposed to vehicles! It stimulates your senses with it's incredible open-air markets and souks, spices, fresh herbs, mint leaves, Moroccan cuisine, incence and more...
Like all other Moroccan cities, Fes has a French-built Ville Nouvelle - familiar and modern with its numerous cafe's, restaurants, royal palaces, gardens, hotels and yes, Mc. Donalds! :) But a whopping of 800,000 inhabitants continue to live in the Medina-city of Fes el Bali (old city) and this is where you will want to spend most of your time getting lost in the winding souks and alleys.
Stall in the souk

Pros:"Raw Moroccan experience that you only find in Fes!"
Cons:"Smelly, complicated alleys, not much to do after 2 days"
In A Nutshell:"Definately worth a stop"
