Royal Palace of FezOur first stop is the grand Royal Palace, a masterpiece of Moroccan craftsmanship. Though visitors cannot enter, the golden gates, adorned with intricate zellige tiles and massive brass knockers, offer a stunning introduction to the city's rich heritage. The palace is a symbol of royal elegance, standing in harmony with the bustling Mellah, the historic Jewish quarter.
-
Bab BoujloudThe journey into Fes el-Bali begins at the iconic Bab Boujloud. This majestic blue-and-green tiled gate is more than just an entrance—it’s a threshold between centuries. As you pass through, the sights, sounds, and scents of the medina envelop you, setting the stage for an unforgettable exploration.

Just steps away, the Bou Inania Medersa stands as one of Morocco’s finest theological schools. Its stunning cedarwood carvings, marble floors, and emerald-tiled courtyard whisper tales of scholars who once gathered here in search of wisdom. Sunlight filtering through the lattice windows adds a mystical touch to this sacred space.
-
Fes el-BaliDiving into the heart of Fes el-Bali, the oldest walled part of the city, feels like stepping into a living museum. The labyrinthine alleys twist and turn, revealing spice-filled souks, artisans hammering copper, and donkeys carrying goods as they have for centuries. Every corner tells a story of tradition untouched by time.
-
Museo NejjarineAt Musée Nejjarine, a former caravanserai turned museum, we uncover the artistry of Moroccan woodworking. Its exhibits showcase intricate wooden doors, antique chests, and delicate inlaid furniture. From the rooftop, the medina sprawls below, an ocean of terracotta rooftops and minarets.
-
Zaouia of Moulay Idriss IIA short walk leads us to the Moulay Idriss Mausoleum, the final resting place of Fes’s founder. Non-Muslims cannot enter, but the serene ambiance at its threshold is palpable. The scent of incense lingers in the air as worshippers gather to pay respects to the city’s spiritual father.
-
Nestled within the medina, Al Quaraouiyine University, founded in 859 AD, stands as a beacon of knowledge. This UNESCO-recognized institution has educated scholars for over a millennium. The entrance reveals intricate archways and calligraphic inscriptions, reminding us of Morocco’s enduring intellectual legacy.
-
Place SeffarineApproaching Place Seffarine, the rhythmic clang of hammer against metal fills the air. This lively square is home to generations of copper artisans, crafting gleaming teapots, trays, and lanterns. Their hands shape history, continuing a craft passed down through centuries.
-
Chouara TanneryThe legendary Chouara Tanneries unfold like a painter’s palette, where leather is dyed in vibrant hues using age-old techniques. From a high vantage point, we watch artisans work in the honeycomb-shaped vats, their craft a blend of tradition, patience, and natural elements. The scent—strong but authentic—is a reminder of this ancient artistry.
-
Borj SudOur journey ends with a breathtaking view from Borj Sud, a fortress perched above the city. As the sun sets, Fes’s endless rooftops, minarets, and rolling hills create a postcard-perfect memory. With one last deep breath of the cool, history-laden air, we bid farewell to this mesmerizing city.
