The greater part of Morocco’s history is found in the country’s heart, in the imperial cities. Each succeeding sultan and emperor from the Moroccan dynasties chose his own capital city. With a 12-century rich history, Fes is the city to discover remnants of Andalusia’s culture. Both modern and traditional, the city, founded by sultan Idris the 1st, combined contemporary elements with 13th century relics edified by the Marinids. Visiting the Dar-Jamai Museum, the Bou-Inania Medersa and the Mausoleum of Moulay Ismail is like traveling in time. Meknes, founded by the Alaouite sultan Moulay Ismail in 1672, has kept its freshness. Meknes, just like Fes, was built gradually throughout the dynasties. Visiting The Dar Jamai Museum, the Bou Inania Medersa and the mausoleum of Moulay Ismail is an opportunity to travel back in time. Marrakech, or the “Southern Pearl”, is bustling with treasures such as the Medina. Its serpentine alleys, its fountains and its gardens give its visitors the calm coolness needed to enjoy the city. The Bahia Palace, built around 1880 is one of the splendid must-sees of Marrakech. By assembling the history of these four imperial cities, this film will take you through the Morocco of princes and emperors.
