Things to do in Meknes
Many people just visit Meknes as a daytrip from Fez but that doesn’t do this old imperial capital justice. There is lots to see – including a creepy prison!
Morocco
A pilgrimage in Morocco
It’s a long walk to Moulay Idriss. As my feet pound the path, I think of why I’m doing this pilgrimage. Many others have taken this path before me.
The city that blue me away
In the mountains of Morocco, away from the big cities, is an old city painted all in blue. To get lost in this maze of streets is a study in just one colour.
The old fortified town
The enormous stone walls around El Jadida, designed to protect it from attack, have also protected the authenticity from the advances of modernity.
Dealing with touts in Morocco
As I walk through the medina of Fez, I am fascinated by everything around me. Everything, that is, except the touts. So how do I deal with these people?
Rough and raw in Fez
The old capital of Morocco, Fez, is the largest medina in the world. Exploring the maze of little streets leaves you wondering where you are in time.
