Royal Palace of FezRoyal Palace (Main Gate) Imagine arriving at the heart of Fez, where the imposing golden gates of the Royal Palace shimmer under the Moroccan sun. These gates are not just entrances—they’re masterpieces carved with intricate patterns, each detail telling a story of centuries of skilled artisanship. Though the palace itself remains a royal residence closed to the public, standing here, you feel the pulse of Morocco’s royal history. You’ll hear the whispers of sultans past and the quiet grandeur that has guarded the city for generations. It’s a moment to pause, photograph, and appreciate a living symbol of Fez’s majestic heritage.
-
Mellah soukMellah (Jewish Quarter) Step into the winding streets of the Mellah, where every corner carries echoes of a vibrant Jewish community that flourished here for centuries. The narrow alleys are lined with houses adorned with distinctive balconies and carved wooden doors, each telling a tale of tradition and resilience. You might spot an ancient synagogue tucked between market stalls, or a humble shop selling delicate silver jewelry made by local craftsmen. As you explore, you’ll learn about the fascinating cultural blend and shared history that shaped this quarter—a place where faith, art, and everyday life intertwined in the fabric of Fez.
-
Borj NordBorj Nord (Northern Fortress) Climbing up to Borj Nord is like stepping back into a 16th-century fortress, standing tall over the city to protect it from invaders. As you reach the ramparts, the view unfolds in a stunning panorama—rooftops of the Medina stretch endlessly, a maze of earth-toned buildings and bustling streets below. The fortress itself holds a small arms museum, giving you a glimpse into Morocco’s martial past. Here, standing on the battlements, you can almost hear the clang of swords and the murmur of soldiers, while soaking in the breathtaking vista that only a place with centuries of history can offer.
-
Marinid TombsMarinid Tombs Perched high on a hill overlooking Fez, the Marinid Tombs invite you into a quiet moment of reflection and awe. These centuries-old mausoleums, resting places of a powerful dynasty, stand in graceful ruins surrounded by fragrant wild herbs and sweeping views. From here, you gaze across the city’s rooftops, the minarets piercing the sky, and the winding rivers far below. It’s a serene spot where history meets nature—a place that whispers stories of rulers long gone and the enduring spirit of Fez.
-
Borj SudBorj Sud (Southern Fortress) Borj Sud offers a different angle on Fez’s sprawling Medina, perched on the southern heights like a silent guardian. The climb here feels rewarding as you arrive at a peaceful terrace with sweeping views stretching in every direction. Unlike Borj Nord’s military might, Borj Sud’s charm lies in its quiet solitude and the opportunity to watch the city come alive from above. It’s the perfect spot to pause, breathe in the cool air, and imagine the daily lives of Fez’s residents framed by ancient walls and endless history.
-
Art D'ArgilePottery Square Enter Pottery Square, a lively, colorful enclave where tradition dances in the hands of skilled artisans. The air is filled with the earthy scent of fresh clay and the rhythmic sound of spinning wheels. You’ll watch in fascination as potters mold wet clay into elegant bowls, plates, and tagines, their fingers moving deftly in a dance perfected over centuries. Around you, vibrant zellige tiles—intricate mosaics of blues, greens, and reds—catch the sunlight, telling stories through geometric patterns. Don’t be surprised if an artisan invites you to try shaping your own piece—a hands-on glimpse into a timeless craft that connects past and present.

Jardin Jnan SbilJnan Sbil Garden Step through a hidden gate into Jnan Sbil Garden, a lush sanctuary amid the city’s historic bustle. Here, winding paths lead you past orange trees heavy with fruit, beds bursting with vibrant flowers, and fountains that sparkle as they sing their gentle songs. The cool shade of towering palm trees offers refuge from the sun, inviting you to linger on a bench with a view of this tranquil paradise. As you walk, you’ll discover why this garden has long been a favorite retreat for locals and travelers alike—a living testament to nature’s quiet beauty and the peaceful heart of Fez.
-
Tanneries de FesChouara Tannery (Tanners’ Quarter) Entering the Chouara Tannery is like stepping into a world frozen in time. Below you, massive stone vats bubble with natural dyes—vivid reds, yellows, and blues—while workers stand waist-deep, their hands expertly massaging animal hides to soften and dye them. The scent is strong and unique, a raw reminder of an ancient craft that has shaped Fez’s identity for over a thousand years. From a high vantage point, you can watch the mesmerizing cycle of leather-making unfold: the washing, dyeing, drying. It’s a sensory journey through tradition, craftsmanship, and the vibrant life of Fez’s artisan soul.
