Things to do in Meknes

The ancient city of Meknes has a 25-kilometer-long wall, which is the longest, most complete, most complex and richest ancient wall in Morocco and is a world cultural heritage. The city gate is very distinctive.

Came here on March 4, 2019. Meknes is one of the "Four Imperial Cities" of Morocco. It is called the "Black City". The ancient city of Meknes is also a world heritage site recognized by UNESCO. The great Sultan Moulay Ismail made this the capital during his reign, and the Mansur Gate was the last major construction project during the reign of the Sultan to commemorate his great achievements. Moulay Ismail Sultan is the ancestor of the current Moroccan royal family and can be called "the greatest emperor in the history of Morocco". His gate is not only magnificent, but also very beautiful, containing many well-known decorative arts at that time. Therefore, this is definitely one of the must-see attractions in Morocco. In front of the gate is an open square. There are many shops selling local handicrafts around the square, and tourists and local vendors are on the square.

The Roman province in North Africa Volubilis is the westernmost fortress of the Roman Empire and one of the best preserved Roman monuments in Morocco. The city was built in the 3rd century BC and was once the capital of the Kingdom of Mauritania and the administrative center of the Roman Empire in North Africa. In 1755, Volubilis was damaged by the Lisbon earthquake. Since 1914, archaeologists have begun to study the unearthed ruins and cultural relics. There are ancient Roman buildings and mosaics in the ruins. Come here and witness the glorious days of the Roman Eastern Empire! 150th day of marriage travel, 10th country Morocco

Visiting the Hassan II Mosque was the absolute highlight of my time in Casablanca. From the moment I stepped onto the oceanfront esplanade, I was struck by its sheer scale—the intricate zellij tilework, carved cedar ceilings, and the towering 210-meter minaret are breathtaking in person. The guided tour was well-organized and gave fascinating insight into Moroccan craftsmanship and Islamic tradition, but the most unforgettable moment was standing in the glass-floored prayer hall, watching the Atlantic waves roll directly beneath my feet. Even if you're not religious, this is a masterpiece of art and engineering that deserves a spot on any traveler's itinerary. Just be sure to arrive early for the best light and fewer crowds—it's an experience that will stay with me forever.
