Morocco has been the most visited nation in North Africa in recent years, and it is one of the safest countries in the world, with over 10 million tourists in the past few years. Generally seen as a secure destination and the terrorist attacks are thankfully rare in Morocco compared to France, Belgium, and the UK. As a traveler, you are unlikely to be assaulted or seriously hurt because there is a low level of crime, and the Moroccan government has raised infrastructure investment and security measures to attract more visitors and provide more security
There is really no time of year when you wouldn’t enjoy your trip to Morocco; although you should keep in mind that it tends to get a little too crowded with tourists during the winter holidays season. Then it’s up to you to decide what season suits you the best to come to visit, according to your schedule and preferences. The weather in Morocco is more on the mild side during Spring and Autumn (from March to May and from September to November respectively).
For these reasons, the temperatures could be ranging anywhere from 11° to 32°C. Winter usually lasts from December to February, with a relatively low-temperature range (7° to 21°C). You should also expect to see snowfall in Morocco’s mountainous regions. As for Summer (from June to August), temperatures can land anywhere between 19°C and 40°C in the middle of the day.

Fes is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is also regarded as one of Morocco’s most ethereal and sacred cities. It has been at the heart of Moroccan civilization for more than five centuries, and it was a significant social and scientific center that rivaled that of Europe. Fes is also an excellent starting point for Sahara desert journeys from Fes to Marrakech.
The Mellah is a walled Jewish neighborhood in the ancient Moroccan cities of Marrakech and Fez. The Fes Mellah is also walled, with a braced entranceway. These Jewish quarters are near prestigious residences, allowing their occupants to be protected from the Muslim people’s wrath. Jews used to be the exclusive owners of the Fes Mellah. This was Moroco’s first “Mellah,” which began in 1438. It was founded by the Merinids in the mid-fourteenth century, near Fes.
During the seventeenth century, Fes was home to a vibrant Jewish population, as well as two well-known sanctuaries. The Ibn Danan family and the nearby Mansano Synagogue founded Rabbi Shlomo Ibn Danan Synagogue. The synagogue of Ibn Danan has been added to the 1996 World Monuments Watch List and Fund.
More Jewish holy persons are buried in this graveyard than in other Moroccan cemeteries. Lalla Silica, who was slain for refusing to convert to Islam, is one of the most important holy figures. Silica was born in Tangier in the year 1817. She was followed by a Muslim man when she was 16, but she refused to marry him. The man went to the caid, the local government official, to pressure her into taking potentially reckless action. The man told the caid that Solica couldn’t say no to his proposal of marriage because she would never be Jewish again, having converted to Islam on her own terms.
The Madrasa Bou Inania was founded by Abu Inan Fais, who also founded the Madrasa Bou Inania at Meknes, in AD 1351–56. The madrasa served as both an educational institution and a congregational mosque at the same time. It has a minaret and is the main madrasa in Fes.

Place el-Seffarine is the most prominent hub for Fasiss-style pottery, brassware, and silverware manufacture in Morocco.
The Tanner’s Quarters, often known as the Chorale, is Fès’ most vibrant and elegant tannery. Because of the very foul odors they generate, tanneries are typically located near waterways such as the Wadi Fès and well away from local areas.
