Fes Travel



Fes Travel is a favorite activity for all those who are visiting the place for the first time. Fes Travel involves visits to the famous mosques, monuments and other relics which are spread across the various regions of the city.

Fes or Fez is a very important city in Morocco. The city is famous for the various types of hats that are found here. The city is also well known for its ancient walls which can be compared to the walls of Jerusalem. The place was once the medieval capital of Morocco. Fez also has the sprawling medina of the Fes el-Bali which incidentally is also regarded as the world's largest car-free urban zone.

Travel in Fes is characterized by some basic landmarks which help the tourists to roam around the place comfortably. Out of these, the most important one is the 8-point star shape which guides the tourists between the main places in Medina.

The main street of this place is the Talaa Kbira which runs from Bab Boujloud to the Karaouiyne mosque in the heart of the medina. The tourist should also visit the Talaa Sghira which starts at Bab Boujeloud and eventually merges back into the Talaa Kbira. Once the heart of the medina is reached, the tourist should head downhill to the R'cif, a place where numerous buses and taxis can be found.

Fes Travel is incomplete without a visit to the beautiful Bou Inania madersa, a 14th century old religious college. This college is one of the best examples of Islamic architecture and is made of wooden walls which are finely carved with geometric patterns. The other important feature of the college is the Arabic calligraphy and a beautiful minaret. In the courtyard of the college lies a portico with a mosque separated by a small moat.

Fes Tour and Travel also includes a nice view from the top of the hills with two fortresses overlooking the city. They are the Borj Nord and the Borj Sud. Borj Nord contains ancient museums while Borj Sud is a place of tourist attraction.

Another important place of tourist attraction is the "Merenid Tombs" which is situated next to the Merenid hotel. The tombs present an excellent view of the olive tree lined hills surrounding the city and also the sanctuary.
