Fes - The one and only
... to the viewing platforms its a bit more manageable. I can only imagine working in the tanneries all day, although it was actually very fascinating to watch. The shopowners gave us good explanations and lots of time. Eventually I couldnt take the stench any more and entered the air-conditioned cordoned-off leather shop where we bought some "pouffs", just for escaping the stench!
