(For those who don't know I am on a round trip through Morocco)
Today we visited Fes and amongst other things also the Souk in the middle of the town surrounded by walls. It hasn't changed since centuries. There are around 1400 little streets in there and all goods have to be transported by donkies, on men's shoulders or bikes because the streets are so small that no car can enter the inside of the Souk. It is believed to be the world's largest contiguous car-free urban area

I was exhausted after 2 1/2 h of walking in these little cobble stoned streets with hundreds of people. Of course I have much more interesting and strange pictures of another world.
