    6 Reasons Fez Should Be On Your Morocco Bucket List

    Scroll on Instagram and you will find endless Morocco posts featuring Marrakech and Chechakoes. To be honest, I was not that impressed with Marrakech (although I will write a separate blog post featuring some hidden gems there). Fez (sometimes spelled #Fes), however, captured my heart! I fell in love with the ancient feel of the city: donkeys with carts coming down narrow alleyways of the medina and endless decadent doors with massive surprising spaces behind it. You truly get an authentic taste of Moroccan culture here especially because Fez served as the Moroccan capital for more than 400 years and is home to the University of Al Karaouine, the oldest operating university in the world.
