After the intensity of Fez, Meknes, another imperial city a short train ride away, was a welcome break. Meknes is smaller and more manageable, and in general people were less aggressive in their efforts to sell us things. AND the Riad we stayed at here was astonishingly lovely and the homemade food, prepared by our hosts Nadia and Zohra, was beyond delicious.

We also took a day trip to nearby Volubilis, an ancient Roman archeological site with stunning mosaics.
