Fez Essentials

Fez is home to the world's largest urban pedestrian zone, Fes el Bali, a UNESCO World Heritage site dating back to the 8th century. This collection highlights the city's religious and educational foundations, including the 9th-century Kairaouine University and the intricate Merenid-era Madrasa al-Attarine. The list covers essential landmarks from the traditional leather dyeing pits of the ancient tanneries to the 14th-century Borj Nord fort and the historic metalworking hub of Seffarine Square.
