The Chouara Tannery: The Craft That Stains the City's Hands
- Fes el-Bali: Inside the World's Largest Living Medina: A walk down the great sloping artery of Fez's medieval old city, from the ceremonial Blue Gate to the hand-worked tanneries, threading a thousand years of a car-free city that still works.
- Fes Jdid and the Mellah: The Imperial and Jewish City: A walk through the second Fez the Marinids built beside the ancient medina: golden royal gates, the street-facing mellah with its surviving synagogue and outlasting cemetery, the empty parade grounds, a cool royal garden, and the ruined tombs of the dynasty that founded it all.
