Trip to Fes & Meknes
Fes: The oldest university in the world isn’t Oxford or the Sorbonne—it’s the
University of Al-Karaouine, and you’ll find it in Fes el Bali. This walled city, a
UNESCO World Heritage Site, will transport you back to medieval times. Visit the
ancient maze-like quarters of the Medina to Fes el-Bali and the four imposing
Gates of Fes, with their distinctive Moroccan tile work. You can walk, or, if you're
brave, take a taxi—the daredevil drivers will have you hanging on for dear life.
Meknes: Overlooked by many tourists, Meknes is a bustling modern city of
nearly a million in northern Morocco, about 80 miles inland from the capital of
Rabat. Local hero Moulay Ismail made Meknes Morocco's hub at the end of the
17th and beginning of the 18th centuries, and his mausoleum is one of the city's
main attractions. The Museum of Moroccan Art (housing fascinating jewels and
artifacts) and Bab Mansour (the largest and most stunning of the city's gates) are
other Meknes sights not to be missed.
Trip to Tangirer & Chefchaouen
Tangier: Located on the Strait of Gibraltar where Africa meets Europe, Tangier
has long held strategic importance. Ruled through the centuries by waves of
conquerors including Romans, Vandals, Byzantines, Arabs and Portuguese, the
city is more than two and a half millennia old, making it one of North Africa's most
ancient. The medina, kasbah, bazaars and souks are among the country's most
vibrant, and the beaches are excellent. In the last century,
Chefchaouen :This stunning Moroccan city in the Rif Mountains was originally
built as a fortress in the 15th century. The mountains towering over Chefchaouen
resemble a pair of goat’s horns, and, perhaps not coincidentally, the creamy native
goat cheese is one of the most popular regional treats. Architecture enthusiasts will
marvel at the Jewish-inspired blue-tinted buildings, octagonal mosque and Spanish
ruins.
Trip to Merzouga
Merzouga is a part of the Sahara desert in the southern desert, known for the
vast sand dunes, the adventure of camel trekking, the magical nights and many other
experiences.
Medical reasons can be behind the increasing number of visitors to Merzouga, especially
for making “sand bath” as an effective treatment for this health problem.
Out of the reasons mentioned, you should go to Merzouga to experience the beautiful
architecture of the Kasbahs in the way from Marrakech or the natural views of the middle
Atlas mountains from Fes, the unique lifestyle of the local people and the breath-taking
landscapes of the Sahara desert, and the splendid sensation of the camel ride (camel
trekking) over the sand dunes!
Trip to Marrakech
Marrakech The “Red City” of Marrakesh is a magical place, brimming with
markets, gardens, palaces, and mosques. Exploring the intimate courtyards and
snaking alleyways of the historic Medina can easily eat up a day. Find inner
peace at the serene Jardin Majorelle or take in the beauty of one of the city’s
historic mosques (taking note that, unless you are Muslim, you are not allowed to
enter).
Marrakech is also a soaring metropolis steeped in history and culture, fabulous
and exciting, a mixture of old and new with a charm of an exotic city. Marrakech
has its own personality with a unique culture that represents the numerous faces
of the city’s character..
