Chouara Tannery

Wander through the winding alleys of Fes el-Bali, where the scent of spices and the hum of the souks guide you towards one of the city’s most iconic treasures: Chouara Tannery a living remnant of a millennium-old leather tradition. Step into a world where every stage of production—soaking, cleaning, dyeing, and drying—is done entirely by hand, in open-air vats, just as it was centuries ago.

Experience the lively souks, buzzing with activity, where the scent of spices fills the air, and colourful handmade goods—from leatherwork and ceramics to textiles and metal crafts, catch your eye at every turn. As you walk through the vibrant alleys, you'll witness artisans at work, continuing the skills passed down through generations in the heart of Morocco’s cultural capital.

Kairaouine Mosque (Mosque of al-Qarawiyyin)

For over twelve centuries, this remarkable institution—founded by Fatima al-Fihriya—has been recognised as the oldest continually operating university in the world. Within its historic walls, students from across the globe once studied religion, science, medicine, music, and languages. Although the mosque remains closed to non-Muslim visitors, you can still glimpse its serene courtyard, elegant fountains, and intricate mosaic tilework through the main entrance.
