Fes

The spiritual and cultural heart of Morocco, with the largest car-free medina in the world.

Rated 5.0/5 on Tripadvisor

Fes el-Bali, the old medina of Fes founded in the 9th century, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the largest car-free urban areas in the world. Thousands of lanes lead to mosques, madrasas, fountains and workshops where crafts are still made by hand.

Highlights include the Bou Inania and Al-Attarine madrasas, the Chouara tannery seen from the leather shops above it, and the Al Quaraouiyine mosque and university, founded in 859. A local guide is the best way to explore the medina.
