Fes or Fez is a popular city in Morocco, well known for its
walled cities
. During the Medieval times, Fes was Morocco's capital. There are actually two walled portions in Fes: the
Fes-I-Bali
which is the more traditional area and the
Fes-I-Jdid
which is the more modern portion.
There are so many Fes attractions that are highly recommended to tourists. The
Bou Inania madersa
, a college constructed in the 14th century, with walls made of wood that has carvings and which also showcase the calligraphy of the Arabs, is a well known Fes tourist site. The
Sofital Palais Jamai Terrace
is also a recommended site where you can get access to beautiful views of the medinas. Your visit to Fes will also be incomplete if you do not drop by
the tannery
which shows you how to make leather (leather making is one of the things Fes or Morocco is known for). Fes is definitely a must visit if you're interested in
Islamic architecture
as Islamic inspired structures are seen all over the city.
