Incredible Journey to Sahara Desert ~Fez~ <Morocco vol.2>

The desert was totally different from what I learned in textbooks, when I was a kid.

It was not dead.

I felt the power of the sand, which is ALIVE.

The Sahara desert was my final destination in Morocco.
But this time I wanna start with Fez.

Fez was a busy town with a lot of people talking, walking, eating, selling.

The impressive moment was when I saw "the artists" in the town.

Some of them were weaving clothes made of cactus. (its text was cool and smooth)

Some were curving and painting for doors.

Some were dying camel's skin.

By the way, the skins were carried by donkeys
(A Moroccan man riding on a donkey shouted me
"Donkeys are taxies here!"
when he passed! haha)

Also I cannot forget the strange taste of Pastilla, a pie with chicken, sugar, spices and everything! (I don't really know)
You will like it, but it tastes really new!

Whenever you eat outside, you cannot be apart from cats.
They are everywhere! But not always beautiful like them.

I actually admit that it is not a clean, beautiful town.
Sometimes it smells bad, you will be tired of cats, annoyed by people pushing you to sell.
But still,

Fez was so attracting!

One of the reasons is this hotel.

I didn't book specially expensive one.
Hotels like this, called "Riad" are everywhere in Morocco.
You don't know how gorgeous it is unless you actually come into the house.

From outside, you cannot tell if it is a gorgeous or not.
I heard the people lived there long time ago, protect the house by not showing their richness to outside.

The other reason I like Fez is that
I had really good Tajins there.
