discovering fes

When travelling, it is always important to let your feet do the walking...

Muslim Cemetery 
Neglected and crowded, but as a result, beautiful.

Nejjarine Museum of Wooden Arts & Crafts
A luxurious example of great carpentry itself, this museum tells history through craft. Walk around and admire the cedar woodwork and the enormous weighing scales on the ground floor, reminiscent of the trading hall that once was. The rooftop is an ideal place to listen to the calls to prayer, staggered and harmonious. If you place your head into the narrow openings that frame surrounding city views, it is all the more echoey.

Pottery Shop
Walk in and feast your eyes! Morroco may have made me sick of tagine, but never ceramics.
