Meknes: The Imperial Gem

Meknes is a city of understated charm, blending imperial grandeur with a laid back atmosphere. Step through the towering Bab Mansour gate and into a world of history, where sprawling palaces, mosques, and granaries whisper tales of Sultan Moulay Ismail’s ambitious reign. Wander through El Hedim Square, a quieter counterpart to Marrakech’s Jemaa el Fnaa, and sample local delights like nougat and olives. For ultimate relaxation, visit a hammam, where the steam and therapeutic oils provide a soothing escape, mirroring the city’s peaceful ambiance
