| Fez Marruecos Fez es la más antigua y medieval ciudad del Mundo, está considerada como la capital espiritual, religiosa y cultural de Marruecos. Esta fascinante ciudad no ha cambiado en demasía con el paso de los años, es una ciudad tradicional anclada pese al paso del tiempo en su pasado, elegante, exótica, Fez es un lugar único en el mundo que pervive a los cambios producidos en los tiempos que corren. Fue la capital de Marruecos durante 400 años, siendo el centro cultural y universitario de Marruecos. Esta ciudad fue fundada en el año 789. A lo largo de más de un milenio, la ciudad ha pasado por dificultades, pero siempre ha sabido sobrevivir, caminar hacia delante, con su cultura y su cocina. |
|
| La ciudad de Fez es como un museo
viviente, con su arquitectura antigua intacta pese al paso del tiempo, y con
una vitalidad asombrosa. Sus calles están tomadas por coches, monos y mulas,
dándole un sinfín de contrastes a sus calles, el contraste de la pobreza y
del desarrollo. Fez es una ciudad que pese al paso de los años se mantiene intacta, mantiene su encanto, su cultura, sus vistas y sus tradiciones, algo que lleva así siglos y siglos, es como un viaje al pasado. Los mejores sitios para visitar en Fez son la Mezquita de Kairouine,, el centro del aprendizaje islámico desde hace más de 1.000 años, un colegio islámico también, el cuarto de curtidores y el Palacio Real entre otras cuestiones. |

| Fez Travel Guide Edit This The best resource for sights, hotels, restaurants, bars, what to do and see salam voila c fes la plus belle et ancienne dans le maroc salam voila c fes la plus belle et ancienne dans le maroc prince_hiver@hotmail.com It's hard to get your grip on Fez. This may be partly because there are three towns in Fez: the two ancient walled areas — Fes-l-Bali (the old town) and Fes-l-Jdid (the new town) — and the more modern French-built Ville Nouvelle. |
| But let this not scare you! Fez is one of the best sights in the world. The
walled cities are the main attraction of Fez. The whole old city of Fez has
been declared a UNESCO World Heritage site. The immense medina of Fes-l-Bali is a huge labyrinth. In order not to get lost it is best to keep in mind that when you walk down you go towards the center, when you walk up, you leave the center. The gates that are part of the walls are part of some amazing architecture. Within the walls you should at least try to find the Medersa Attarine, the Medersa Cherratine and Medersa Seffarine, three stunning old buildings near the center of the maze. The other thing you shouldn't miss is the people at work in the median: coppersmith, tanners, dyers. Spectacular colours and lousy working conditions make for great pictures. Just outside the walls are two good museums—Borj Nord (exhibiting weapons) and Dar Batha (Moroccan arts)—and the Royal Palace. The amazing hammams are also worth it for a unique view into the local culture, especially for women. The hammam is the place for women to meet and gossip amidst the steamy rooms tiled with beautiful islamic designs. ___________Sights Edit This The main sight of Fez is of course the old town. There is not a particular route you need to take, but here are a few highlights you will want to include in your walk through the maze. Display all or display just: Hotspots Parks, Gardens and Zoos general Show best rated on top | Show in alphabetical order [Add Sight] The tanneries Edit This Souq Dabbaghin is the Tannaries quarter. It is quite easy to miss. Try to go towards the river and to the north form the Kairaouiyyine. There are a few signs. For a small fee you can climb on the rooftops and get a really good look of the work that's done in the tanneries. Shore Griffin: Something not to miss in Fes--Try to access from high up so the small is not too bad. It is a bit overwhelming so make sure you have a batch of mint to hold to your nose--but it is absolutely a must see! : type: general World66 rating: [rate it] Zaouia Moulay Idriss Edit This Moulay Idriss is the founder of Morocco and of Fes. His Zaouia is considered the holiest building in the holy city of Fes. Although you can't get in, you can walk around. A thing a non-muslim wasn't permitted to do before the Frenc Protectorate. Omar KANE: Shore Griffin: Not being Muslim we were only able to view from behind the lovely brass dividers. Quiet and serene this place is beautiful and peaceful. type: general World66 rating: [rate it] zipcode: y6k 8d1 address: 8624 rumble tel: 778 388 3105 Dar El Moqri: Institut de Formation des Métiers Traditionnels du Bâtiment Edit This Formerly one of the town houses of the vizier family El-Moqri, the Dar El Moqri is now a school for arts and crafts in building trade ("Institut de Formation des Métiers Traditionnels du Bâtiment"). It has a beautifully restored court with orange trees and a fountain. From here you have a pretty view on the houses of Fès. Inside the house you can admire beautiful "zellije" works (hand cut tiles) and a hall with wooden inlays and carvings, serving sometimes as an auditorium. The Dar El Moqri is located in Fès El Bali, a 10 min walk from the more.. type: Hotspots World66 rating: [rate it] address: 12-14, Rue Oued Souaffine, Fès-Batha Dar Batha Edit This Dar Batha museum has a large arts and handicrafts collection. It is open daily, except tuesday. Closed between noon and 2:30. The gardens are a great place to relax. The museum is near the Bab Boujeloud, just outside of the entrance of the old town. type: Hotspots World66 rating: [rate it] Medersa Bou Inania Edit This The most outstanding example of Merinid architecture. Even if you skip all the other Medersas, this is the one you shouldn't miss. Since it is still in use, you may be asked to leave at prayer time. The Medersa is just behind the Bab Boujeloud and easy to find. It was built in the 1350ies by the sultan Abou Inan Faris, from whom it received its name. Is is said to be the largest and most important medersa in Fès. You should make an effort and climb up to the roof, from where you have a beautiful view on Fès. type: Hotspots World66 rating: [rate it] openingHours: from 8.30 a.m. to 5.30 p.m, in Ramandan the opening hours vary address: Fès El Bali accessibility: entrance fee is 10 MAD (about 1 Euro) The Attarin Medersa Edit This Near the Kairouiyyine. Another fine example of Medersa architecture. Although it is less imposing than the Bou Inania, the views from the roof definately make it worth your while to come and visit. type: general World66 rating: [rate it] Qaraouiyyine Edit This Very important mosque and university. Non mulsims can't enter, unfortunately. The University was the most important center of learning of the Maghreb for centuries. The mosque was founded in 857 by a woman from Kairouan in Tunisia. If you're not a muslim you can't go in, but you can peek through the open gates. knaperd: It was realy worth visiting this pretty city: frienly people, good food and a hot sun. I'd like to come again.

Gautier: : type: general World66 rating: [rate it] Jardins de Boujeloud Edit This You can take a pleasant rest in the Jardins de Boujeloud ("Jardins de la Marche Verte") in Fès El Djedid, if you are exhausted from your tour. You can sit in one of the shady little alleys, at the pond or near the little channels that serve as irrigation for the gardens. Uncommon for Morocco is the bamboo grove that covers a corner of the parc. The Jardins de Boujeloud are situated between Fès El Djedid and Fès El Bali, near the Vieux Méchouar. They are bordered by the Avenue des Francais and the Rue de l'Unesco. It's just within a stone's throw of more.. type: Parks, Gardens and Zoos World66 rating: [rate it] address: Fès El Djedid Bab Boujeloud and Place Boujeloud Edit This The Bab Boujeloud is the entrance most tourists take to enter the medina. Contrary to most sights in Fès El Bali, the Bab Boujeloud was not built in medieval times, but in 1913. On the inside it is decorated in green, the color of Islam. On the outside the prevailing faiences' color is blue, symbol of the city of Fès. Peeping through the gate also can give you a first orientation, if the medina is new for you. The minaret that you see on the left belongs to the Medersa Bou Inania. The one on the right is the minaret of the mosque Sidi more.. type: Hotspots World66 rating: [rate it] address: Fès El Bali ___________History Edit This salam voila c fes la plus belle et ancienne dans le maroc salam voila c fes la plus belle et ancienne dans le maroc prince_hiver@hotmail.com Fez is the oldest city of Morocco. As with other Moroccan cities it consists of two parts; the Medina and the Ville Nouvelle. Fez differs from other cities by its divided Medina which include New Fez (Fes-el-Djedid) and old Fes (Fes-el-Bali). New Fez was build in the 14-th century so imagin how old Fes-el-Bali (old Fes) is. This city was founded in the 9th century by the first Muslim dynasty to rule Morocco, the Idrissids. Since then Fez has always played a pivotal role in the history of Morocco, right up to the revolt against the French. Fez-el-Jadid is an outcome of the glorious times in 1248 during the conquest of Fes by the Merenids and therefore it reflects a massive royal city. Most Fassis -the people of Fes- continue to live in in the Medina-city Fes-el-Bali instead of moving to the Ville Nouvelle; the modern urban and more European city. Fez is no longer the capital of Morocco, and is not the biggest nor the most important town, but more than any other town it is immersed with the history of Morocco. By now, most of the original Fassis who trace their heritage back to the time of the Andalusians have either moved to the Ville Nouvelle or to other cities like Casablanca and Rabat. The old medina is now crowded with rural-to-urban migrants and among the old families, very few still occupy their houses there. _________Practical Information Edit This Tourism Delegation · Place de la Résistance, Tel: 62.34.60 / 62.62.97 Central Post Office · Grande Poste, Angle Av.

Walk until you feet can no longer bear you. It's best way to see what you need to see. Within the old city there are no other means of transport except for donkeys (and there are streets with signs 'donkeys not allowed'), so you don't have a lot of choice, anyway. To get from the Ville Nouvelle to the old town, you can find the normal cabs, with a meter the driver is unwilling to use. There are also buses, but they tend to be crowded. You will, at some point, be offered directions by a guide. Whether the guide has been credentialed by the Ministry of Tourism or not Its best to agree on a price beforehand and specify as clearly as possible exactly what you expect the guide to show you. This goes for all of Morocco, but is especially important in Fes, due to its labrythine streets. _______Getting There Edit This There are four options to get in Fez. 1. By train You find the train station in the Ville Nouvelle at ten minutes walk from the hotels around Place Mohammed V. To get in Fes El Bali you can take a petit taxi. 2. By bus When traveling by bus you will probably arrive at the main bus station (tel. 05/636032) just north of Bab Mahrouk (Fes El Bali). The other possibility is that you arrive at the CTM Station on Av. Mohammed V in the Ville Nouvelle. If you planning to go to Marrakesh take the convenient night bus from Bab Ftouh. 3. Grand taxis The grand taxis you are likely to find around Place Baghadi 4. By air Fez has a rather little airport about 15 km of the city. To get there it's best to take a grand taxi (30dh for the taxi; 5dha place). Here you can take several internal flights and for other destinations you have to go to Casablanca. ________Nightlife and Entertainment Edit This You'd better not expect much of Fez' nightlife, because you will be disappointed. Try a café or bar instead. For cafes have a look around Place Mohammed in the Ville Nouvelle, or stroll AV. Mohammed Es Slaoui, Av. Hassan II and Bd. Mohammed V. Bars are hard to find but if you want to visit one try the Av. Es Slaoui otherwise you can also go to a hotel bar in the Moussafir, Mounia, Lamdaghri, Splendid and Grand.
