Fez is an ancient Moroccan city with a special atmosphere where history, crafts and religious traditions are intertwined. The city is traditionally divided into the old Fez el-Bali and the new Fez el-Jedid, creating a striking contrast between the labyrinths of medina and the more orderly quarters. Narrow streets, bustling markets and workshops of artisans fill the city with life and make you immerse yourself in the atmosphere of antiquity.
Among the man-made attractions of Fez are the gates of the old medina, which open the way to the historic heart of the city, as well as the majestic Royal Palace “Dar el Mahzen” with its gardens and representative architecture. A must-see point is the Al-Karaouin Mosque-University, one of the most important religious and educational centers, and the mausoleum of Sultan Mulay-Idris II. Madrasahs, museums and craft districts add color and give the opportunity to see traditional techniques and decorations.
Natural attractions in the surrounding area complement the urban look: picturesque gorges and canyons offer a sudden transition from cramped streets to open rocky panoramas. Tourist routes often feature Dades Canyon with high paths along cliffs and the impressive Todra Gorge, popular with nature lovers and photographers. Such trips allow you to combine sightseeing of city sights and active walks in the fresh air.
On the site you can see all the sights of Fez on an interactive map, read brief descriptions and historical references, and build an optimal route for a walk.
