The Fez tannery, located in the city's Medina, is a sensory experience that ties together the past and present of this Moroccan city. Leather craftsmen still use ancient methods to dye hides in striking colors, filling the air with a distinctive scent. Nearby, the University of Al Quaraouiyine, founded in 859 AD, is considered the oldest existing, continually operating higher educational institution in the world. Its library is a treasure trove of ancient manuscripts. In the heart of the Medina, the Nejjarine Museum of Wooden Arts and Crafts offers a peek into the intricate woodwork traditions of Morocco. Housed in a beautifully restored caravanserai, the museum's collection includes finely carved doors, furniture, and instruments that showcase the craftsmanship of various Moroccan regions. Just outside the Medina, the Mellah, the old Jewish quarter, features distinctive architecture and the Ibn Danan Synagogue, which dates back to the 17th century.
