Meknes, one of Morocco’s four imperial cities, is often overshadowed by Marrakech and Fes, but it offers a unique glimpse into Morocco’s past. Visit the grand gates of Bab Mansour, the Mausoleum of Moulay Ismail, and the ancient Roman ruins of Volubilis nearby. Meknes offers a peaceful and less crowded alternative to the more famous cities while still offering stunning historical sites and a rich cultural experience.
