Morocco's second city of Fez is often referred to as the country's cultural capital.
It offers visitors the UNESCO Fes El Bali walled medina, with medieval Marinid architecture and vibrant souks.
The medina is home to religious schools such as the 14th-century Bou Inania and Al Attarine, both decorated with elaborate cedar carvings and ornate tile work.
With no beach, Fez is often overlooked as a destination.
