Founded in the 9th century and

home to the oldest university in the world, Fez

reached its height in the 13th–14th centuries under

the Marinids, when it replaced Marrakesh as the

capital of the kingdom. Fez is

the second largest city of

Morocco, with a population of 1.1

million. Fez is roughly

divided into three parts: Fez El Bali (the “old part of

the medina”), Fez Jdid (the “new

part of the medina”) and the New City (or Ville

Nouvelle)

Positioned at Fes el-Jadid the Royal Place is a graceful building and takes 80 hectare. Unfortunately, the palace is not open to the public, but it is worth to view the stunning structure from the outside

Place des Alaouites

The impressive façade with its seven doors,

symolising the seven days of the

week, stand 24 meters high
