We will proceed to Chefchaouen the blue painted city by Jewish community that painted walls, floors, steps as a religious practise to represent the colour of the sky and connect the city to heaven and God. This city does not only look EXACTLY the way it does in the pictures, but the atmosphere here is calmer compared to bigger places like, say, Marrakech We will visit, its monuments, experience the sounds and smells of the medina.

We will start by visiting the Kairaouiyne Mosque. This Mosque is the oldest in the world and functioned as the first University in Morocco. The medina in Fez is a particular place. An altogether more earthy and secular surprise awaits us when we suddenly duck off the street and enter a shop selling leather goods. As much as we may fear we are about to be subject to a hard sell. This is not the reason for entering: you pass through the shop and out onto a terrace at the back, overlooking the tannery. It is one of the best photo opportunities in Fez, with the multitude of vats and dyes contrasting with whitewashed walls all around, draped in drying hides. In the afternoon, we visit a pottery factory, explore the Royal Palace and many interesting quarters including the Mullay Abdallah Quarter, the Mellah (Jewish Quarter) and the Ville Nouvelle (The New Quarter).
