Medina

The whitewashed medina of Tetouan is an authentic time machine, and very traveller-
friendly, with moped-free lanes, few street hustlers, amiable residents and a general lack
of congestion, particularly in the large residential areas. In the commercial spaces, the
sights and sounds of traditional life are everywhere: artisans pound brass, silk merchants
offer thousands of spools of multicoloured thread and bakers tend the public ovens. There
are some 35 mosques as well, of which the Grande Mosquée OFFLINE MAP GOOGLE MAP and
Saïda Mosque , both northeast of Pl Hassan II, are the most impressive, although non-
Muslims are not allowed to enter. If you get lost, a few dirhams in local hands will get you
to any doorstep.
The medina is bordered to the south by the pretty Lovers Park OFFLINE MAP GOOGLE MAP ,

a pleasant escape.
