Considered the spiritual center of Morocco. Spirituality doesn't appear on the photos, of course. I spent two hours, without knowing it, at the zawiya of Mulay Idris tomb. I didn't take any pics, I didn't think about it.
What else then? The Karawiyyin, considered the oldest university in the world. Like many things in Morocco, it's a female foundation, created by a heiress of a rich merchant family, Fatima al-Fahri. The mosque, like all the places of worship in Morocco, closed to non-Muslim tourists.
The souk full of curiosities and oddities.

The famous tanneries, looking colorful from upstairs, but exhausting for those who work in them.
