Riad Boujloud Fes

... carpet house, where we were served tea (we didn’t buy any carpets); a metalworks shop (where we bought two hand-embroidered metal plates); an antiques/woodworking shop (where we sat in a hand-carved Moroccan deck swing, but didn’t buy anything); an ancient remedies/potions/herbs and spices shop (where we bought small bags of two different “house spice mixtures” – one with 10 spices, for meats and couscous – and the ...

... wool and silk pieces of art. I'm not even into carpets but by the end of the viewing, I just had to have one. They really know what they're doing. If you're ever in a carpet shop in Fes, beware! It was fun though, and the carpet will last a lifetime. <br><br>We had a good guide - his name is Ali. He was born and raised ...

... On healthcare he is no Hilary Clinton. The only presidential candidate who would have made a lasting positive contribution to American society didn't win her parties nomination. Perhaps Americans just enjoy worrying about their health and how they can afford to pay $5000 for an ambulance. I don't see anything about Obama which would make as big a difference as Hilary would have. I cant help but think that if her husband had just stayed out of it then she might ...

... this I am probably not on the surface the best person to ask about 'authentic' Moroccan life. Lets take what politicians like to call the 'bedrock' of society...the family unit. Perhaps Moroccan life is more centered around children and the family than the UK. Scratch below the surface though and with unemployment at 20% and many generations of the same family living together for economic reasons then the popular and lazy idea that ...

... into the old town. The medina was truly remarkable, one of the most memorable experiences of my life. It was packed with more shops than I can image. It's full of 9,000 pedestrian (and donkey/horse) streets with no apparent patterns (locals don't even need maps). To make matters even more confusing for foreigners, 5,000 of the streets are dead ends. Another thing that struck me was how there were cats all over Morocco, literally hundreds ...

... up buying a bright pink leather bag which was beautiful. I had set my heart on a cute black leather backpack type bag and acquired it for a very good price after a good bout of haggling. All too soon we were led back out of the tannery bazaar and back into the Medina, to follow Del Boy as he led us back through the maze of streets, to our coach which was waiting to take us back to the hotel. This afternoon was going to be free time in Fes to do ...

The old city of Fes is a total maze! A map is useless, you just have to let yourself go. Fes is oozing charm and it lacks the tourist impact that Marrakech has. Fes is a little more authenic and on the outskirts you can see green parks with streams and families picnicking beside. The streets next to the parks are modern with modern lighting. The image will challenge every stereotype you have of Fes, Morocco, and Africa!

... charmed everyone our hote is very cute everything is painted and tiled and there are lots of singing birds outside the windows went to a ceramic / mosaic factory today how fantastic; but they use olive pits to fuel the kiln and there was black black smoke billowing out of the back of the factory; they kept teling us " natural; no chemical" meaning not dangerous lol i will email as soon as possible again hopefully will be able to post pics before i come home

... is incharge of keeping it going. To be fair, I've heard that each hammam is different, some more modern than others. We asked for the 'full deal', including a massage, because we were told hammams offer a massage service. If we were locals, it would have been explained to us that the hammam we went to did not have the massage service, and was simply just a bath house. But rather than turn away the money, they charged us for a massage, and had someone fill in ...
