Fes, also spelled Fez, is one of Morocco’s most ancient and culturally rich cities. It is renowned for its well-preserved medieval architecture, including the historic medina, which is a UNESCO World Heritage site. Fes is home to some of Morocco’s most important historical sites, such as the Bou Inania Madrasa, the University of Al Quaraouiyine (considered the oldest continually operating degree-granting university in the world), and the Royal Palace. The city is famous for its vibrant souks, traditional Moroccan crafts, and intricate tile work. Fes also offers visitors a chance to explore its extensive network of narrow, winding streets and experience the traditional Moroccan way of life.
