Volubilis is an ancient Roman city that is famous for its well-preserved ruins and stunning mosaics and spend enough time exploring the 2000-year-old ruins and getting a picture of life during the Roman Empire. As you wander through the ruins, you’ll get a glimpse into what life was like in ancient Morocco. The city is known for its impressive architecture, and you’ll be able to see some of the most magnificent structures from the Roman Empire, including triumphal arches, basilicas, and thermal baths.
One of the highlights of a visit to Volubilis is the mosaics, which are some of the best-preserved examples of Roman art in the world. They depict scenes from daily life, mythology, and nature, and they are truly a sight to behold.
After visiting Volubilis, you’ll head to the city of Meknes, which was once the capital of Morocco. Meknes is famous for its impressive gates, walls, and palaces, and it’s considered to be one of the most beautiful cities in Morocco. One of the must-see sights in Meknes is the Heri es-Souani, a massive stable that was once used to house the horses of the sultan. The Heri es-Souani is an impressive structure that is sure to leave you in awe. We will explore the beautiful medina and admire its magnificent doors and walls with monumental doors dating from the seventeenth century, including Berdaïne Bab, Bab Khemis.
From Meknes, you’ll continue on to Moulay Idriss Zerhoun, a small town that is home to the tomb of Moulay Idriss, the founder of the first Arab dynasty in Morocco. The town is considered to be one of the holiest in Morocco and it’s a popular pilgrimage site for Muslims. The tomb is housed in a beautiful mosque and it’s a peaceful place to reflect and to pay your respects to the great leader.
Stopping at the mausoleum of Moulay Ismail, which was for a long time the only mosque that non-Muslims can visit in Morocco, then leave it at the famous Bab Mansour El gate on the vast Hedim square. On the other side of the square, the Moroccan art museum “Dar Jamai” offers a wide variety of handicrafts.
While in Moulay Idriss Zerhoun, you’ll also have the chance to explore the town and to sample some of the local cuisine.
