Description
Visiting the Medina of Fez is to immerse yourself in a world where history, culture and tradition intertwine, but doing so with the help of a native and history teacher means going deeper into the roots to reveal the secrets of the cultural legacy of the medieval Medina and the plain. Founded in the 9th century, it is a world heritage site. The Medina, the historic centre, is a labyrinth of narrow streets, lively squares and emblematic architectural works.
This tour of the Medina offers an enriching and complete experience, offering the possibility of:
- The Blue Door: the threshold of history and the official access to the labyrinth.
-The Bounania Madrasa: a joy of Merino architecture and an example of the richness and beauty of brown architecture.
- Labyrinthine Alleys: A walk through the interior of the 9,400 narrow, winding streets. You will feel the essence of the daily life of the inhabitants of Fez.
-The markets: The Medina of Fez is a feast for the hearts. The specific aromas, the sound of the vendors and the excitement of everyday life create a vibrant and supportive atmosphere.
Places of Worship: The medina is home to numerous mosques and mausoleums that reflect Morocco's Islamic heritage.
- Chouara: the tannery where the leather is dyed, preserving an ancestral and artisanal way.
Squares: the Copper Square and the famous Carpenters Square.
Flexibility, kindness and professionalism.
