The journey today begins with a tour of the walls with monumental gates dating from the seventeenth century Berdaïne Bab, Bab Khemis. Continue exploring the city by the stables (Rua), attics (HERI), and Stud. Stop at the Mausoleum of Moulay Ismail, the only mosque that non-Muslims could visit in Morocco for a long time. Exit through the famous Bab Mansour El on the vast square Hedim. On the other side of the square, the Museum of Moroccan Art "Dar Jamai" offers a wide variety of handicrafts. El Hedim Square "the square of demolition") is a famous square in Meknes, Morocco. The square was built in the years 1672-1674 after the Sultan of Morocco, Moulay Ismail, demolished half of the Old city of Meknes for his palace and the square. Then continue the trip to Volubilis.
Visiting Volubilis is like stepping back in time to ancient Roman Morocco. Volubilis is one of the best-preserved Roman ruins in North Africa and a UNESCO World Heritage site. Volubilis was once a thriving Roman city, founded in the 3rd century BC. It flourished as a provincial capital and important center for trade, known for its production of olive oil and grain. Wander through the ruins and marvel at the well-preserved mosaics, columns, and arches that once adorned grand Roman villas and public buildings. Highlights include the House of Orpheus, the Capitoline Temple, and the Arch of Caracalla. Explore the blend of Roman and indigenous culture reflected in the architecture and art found at Volubilis. The site also provides insights into daily life during Roman times in this part of Africa. While exploring, you can hire a local guide to provide historical context and stories about the site.
