Meknes: Morocco’s Underrated Imperial City

Often overlooked, Meknes is a hidden gem among Morocco’s imperial cities. With its grand Bab Mansour gate, peaceful Medina, and nearby Roman ruins of Volubilis, there are plenty of things to do in Meknes for history lovers and culture seekers. Less crowded than Fes or Marrakech, it’s perfect for a relaxed, authentic experience. A great stop on any Meknes travel guide, especially as a day trip from Fes.
