No more monday blues

We did a day trip from Fes to Chefchaouene . It was a rather short stay as the drive was 4hrs each way. We had sufficient time for lunch, photos at the blue street and some souvenirs shopping while getting lost in the narrow streets. Luckily the town is small more relaxed as compared to marrakech and fes. As usual, lots of friendly moroccans who will offer to guide you to the instagrammable spots( with a fee of course), or you can use your map. Would recommend to do a 2d1n if you would like to immerse yourself in this blue city. Chefchaouen, Morocco's "Blue City," is a picturesque town nestled in the Rif Mountains. Founded in 1471, this charming town is known for its blue-painted buildings, winding alleys, and stunning mountain views. Chefchaouen's unique blue hue is said to have originated from Jewish refugees who settled in the town in the 1930s. The blue color is believed to symbolize the sky and the heavens. Visitors to Chefchaouen can explore the town's narrow streets, visit the Kasbah (a 15th-century fortress), and enjoy stunning views of the surrounding mountains. The town is also a popular destination for trekking and hiking.
