Morocco
/ Meknes / The City
A dream made reality, set in the heart of the Moroccan countryside
! Meknes, the imperial city built by Moulay Ismail. With tireless
effort and unrelenting will, he undertook the task of making this
town into a capital worthy of his image.
Palaces,
mosques, fountains, terraces, gardens, stables and shops were
built without any respite over a period of 50 years to fill the
gigantic space contained within the mighty remparts. This was
Moulay Ismail's unfinished vision - and ever since, Meknes has
never ceased to make other dream.
