Chefchaouen

Founded in 1471, Chefchaouen's medina is famous for its uniformly blue-and-white washed buildings, narrow stepped streets cascading down the hillside, and relaxed, friendly atmosphere. The town's elevated position at around 600 m in the Rif Mountains means pleasant temperatures and mountain air year-round. Artisan shops sell woven blankets, leather goods, and argania oil products unique to this region. The nearby Akchour Waterfalls and God's Bridge make excellent day hikes, while the Kasbah museum documents the town's fascinating Moorish and Jewish heritage.
