FES. This is the oldest of the imperial cities in Morocco and its Medina is on of the highlights of a visit to this country. A bit like Casablanca, Fes is a city of contrasts, between the modern “nouvelle city”, and the poor shantytowns and slums. The old monuments are also under threat of falling apart, due to the lack of funds to preserve them. Fes El-bali is the old medina, with its winding small alleys. You will find the usual amount of touts at any of the entrances trying to act as guides. Although when I was there we hired one, I do not really think you need it. The only valid reason for hiring one, is probably to diminish the hassle from the others, and, still, not even this, since we were hassled anyway!
