Summer Travels: Fez

Fez is one of the most beautiful cities we encountered in Morocco, but also one of the hottest (!) and one of the most infuriating in terms of pushy merchants.  After a day of endless annoyances, we were forced to hire a guide on the second day to drive away the hagglers.  Luckily, we still enjoyed maneuvering the maze of the medina, and I took hundreds of photos.  Here are my favorites.
