Just outside the Medina but only just, with Bab Tut gate a two minute walk away. Views can be obtained of the White Dove by just casually sitting on the bench and looking up at the continuous white buildings with the mountain as a gorgeous back drop. The park is not a green park itslef, but a complete pedestrian zone that encounters mainly locals enjoying social time. Not too sure of its construction but it seems fairly new and gladly not ultra modern with plenty of arabic design evident to see. Such as mosaic tiling on the benches and floor, also situated in the middle is a white sheltered arch that has a a definition but not in English, and palm trees that cover the radius of the park. Came here in the day and felt completely safe. Hardly any tourists here which is definitely the case of missing Tetouan's hidden gem..

This stately mosque, a fine example of pure Moroccan architecture, is the only one in the city that non-Muslims may visit.
Although the ticket is a bit expensive and you must follow the visit schedule tightly, it is worth visiting as the indoor design is beautiful and attractive and the guided tour provides useful information. If you don't want to pay the entrance fee, you can also take nice pictures in the square, which is also impressive.

The city’s ancient quarter is an intricate maze of streets lined with open markets, shops and mosques.
Fabulous...! From the world-famous (and moderately odorous) leather tannery to exotic (to us) food stalls to the best mint tea we had - the Fez Medina is truly a remarkable experience. Think in terms of thousands (literally) of small, winding, unnamed, and often vigorous alleyways, walkways and occasional streets, that grew largely organically over hundreds of years. To get the most out of this experience, we would recommend hiring a guide. Our tour included sampling many of the very interesting (and tasty) foods - including preserved beef, some just-cooked wonderful stretchy bread, figs, other sweets, pickles - and a honey tasting of a dozen different honeys. Not far from tannery is a small mint tea shop, which made (without question!) the best and most interesting mint tea we had in Morocco - the shop consists of about 4 stools, a small bench, a wonderful, large copper pot, a small burner - and the fabulous and personable proprietor. Delightful! The tannery is quite a visual (and, um, fragrant) experience. Truly one of the highlights of a Moroccan experience!

Dar Zahira is a beautifully restored and charming riad for up to 6 persons. You'll get a private & cosy place for you and your travel companions.
Always enjoyable to visit the medina Less hassle than in Marrakesh Corona has hit the medina and significant places have ceased trading or closed for reductions of the transmission. Which in turn has increased the poverty a bit but not threatening just quite sad to have been before the pandemic and thoroughly enjoyed every area. There is hope in the town and it’s a beautiful place with friendly people Always happy to return

Located on a large hilltop alongside the Hassan Tower complete with ceremonial guards on horseback and foot, the Mausoleum of Mohammad V is an impressive site. Plan on walking the square and observing the exquisite exterior prior to entering to pay your respects.

These ramparts provide a glimpse into how this old seaport village was fortified against invasion.
A lovely walk along the alleys lead you to the top of the wall to the ramparts , where the original cannons are still to be found there.

As one of Morocco’s main fishing centers, Essaouira’s port is a major attraction.
This is one place you need to visit as all the elements of Essaouira come together with fish the restaurants and people come together The catch of the day is sold and the people come here to buy and socialise. the effect is magical althoug be careful of the ever present gulls.Bream shark prawns lobster langostines plus many other species I could not identify.

This site in Rabat is well worth a visit and is of considerable historic interest. Getting there by private bus (or car) was tricky towards the middle of the day because local traffic was in log-jam in a nearby intersection so allow time for this or walk. Leaving was even more difficult as we needed to turn left out of the ruins and we had to go the long way around the block and that took 20 mins to get back to essentially the same spot but on opposite side of the road. The site is Arabic/Islamic ruins set among older Roman ruins. They are beautifully presented having been integrated into a botanic garden. The ruins are at the bottom of a hill reached by a 'steepish' sloping path with some steps. The ground within the ruins is uneven, so less mobile people need to be careful. We had our own guide, and I suggest making sure that you can get information about the site online or out of guide books otherwise you will wander around and not realise what you are looking at. I don't recall any signs to point out different elements. Good winter rains meant that the area was covered by wildflowers and wonderful yellow-coloured lichens. Storks were perched on large stick nests and were often engaged in mating activities with lots of noise and fanfare. Take time to wander as you can catch site of mosaics and other features. It as worth visiting the pond with eels (good apparently for fertility) and we gave the local woman some money to feed the cats. It was very peaceful and a great place to spend a quite time. It was not very busy during our visit in late March.
