Itinerary
Day 1
Fes Sightseeing
Close
Start the sightseeing tour with the exquisitely decorated Medersa el-Attarine, close to the spice and perfume market. Then to Bou Inania, widely regarded as one of the finest examples of Marinid architecture. The best way to explore Fes is without expectation or knowing exactly where you want to go. The best place to do this is in the markets of Fes El Jdid, one of the four main districts of the city.
