We took a day trip from Fez to see the Berber/Roman ruins at Volubilis. The city dates from the 3rd century BC and became part of the Roman Empire in the 1st century AD. It peaked in the 2nd century AD and was essentially the southwest corner of the Roman Empire. The city fell to local tribes around 285 AD and was never retaken. It remained inhabited for another 700 years.
It’s remarkable to me what can survive for nearly 2000 years.
We continued on to the city of Meknes in the afternoon. It had a huge market, but the goods seemed really cheap with endless redundancy. We’d seen much better in Marrekech.
