Meknes-Tafilalet

Travel Guide

It's quite a walk from the medina, and when you first walk inside it doesn't seem to impressive. But the longer you stay, the more impressive it does become.

Wander through the large halls, admire the architecture and head out back to the long rows of stables...it's a cool place to spend an hour.

If you're heading to the Sahara Desert, this is an excellent base. You walk in and feel as if you've entered a desert fortress, with common areas and rooms to match. The dunes of the Sahara are literally out the back door!

Far in the east of Morocco, near the Algerian border is the village of Merzouga.

When the giant sand dunes of the Sahara begin, they go on as far as the eye can see.

Where to stay in Meknes-Tafilalet

Yup. I could live in this traditional Moroccan guesthouse. This is one of the several common areas that left me in awe.

It's like staying in a palace, complete with courtyards, a rooftop overlooking the entire city, incredible staff, the best food we've had in the country and even a swimming pool.

Meknes Medina

Meknes Medina
One of the oldest gates in all of Morocco, Bab Mansour in Meknes was completed in 1737. 

This is one of the parts of the gate that I was in utter awe of it's detail and beauty. 

Today there is an arts and craft gallery through the doors. So cool.

Definitely you need to check it out. WORTH. IT. :)

Hamria

While Hamria isn't home to many top sights, Place el-Hedim and Bab el-Mansour are some notable places to visit nearby.
