美美玉无暇6Moroccan impression ~ small explorer Meknes Meknes is about 55 kilometers from Fes, most of the people who go here are generally chartered, the inn gave us a quote of 100 euros, just a day's fare. Can't humiliate the image of backpackers, let's take the car by ourselves. [Complacency] Fortunately, there is a train, one hour, about 40 minutes by car. The style of backpackers must be carried forward: From the inn, take the local 10 bus (2.5 dirham) from the blue door to the new city train station. The first time I experienced the train in Morocco (30 dirhams a one-way), I felt so-so. I stopped for half an hour on the way to Meknes for no reason. When I returned to Fes, the train was an hour late. Hey, the Moroccan train was really unreliable. Out of the train station, compared to communicate with the staff, figured out that it is possible to go by bus, so the train station opposite the 10 bus (4 dirhams), transfer to the 15 bus (7 dirhams) to the intersection near the ruins park. Located about 30 kilometers north of Meknes, Worubilis is the site of the ancient Roman city in Morocco, which was recorded as a very prosperous city in the 1st century AD, and it is fully demonstrated by the large number of architectural sites such as the Arc de Triomphe and the theater that remained here. UNESCO included this archaeological monument as a cultural heritage in the World Heritage List in 1997. Tickets 70 dirhams (should be price increases, previously said to be 10 dirhams), the character is not bad, into the inside met a Chongqing to Morocco tour group, the local tour guide outside there is a Chinese tour guide who can speak Arabic, quickly listen all the way. If there is time, Meknes will turn around, it is worth it.

Meknes
Cchinadesk1Meknes has no airport, and it takes half an hour by train from Fes. The ancient city of Meknes is very ancient. The city walls, the city gates, one after another, and those distinctive items are in love. The little donkey ran and passed by, as if returning to the Middle Ages.
Lahdim Square
JJessigzKnown as Little Dejima Square, it is much smaller in scale and content than Dejima Square in Marrakech. It is also a snake and monkey, selling things, opposite the Mansour Gate. On one side is Medina. There are not many people here during the day, it is too sun.
