Fabulous Fez (Fés), Morocco's
most imperial city

Now that so many of our friends and colleagues are planning to join us in Fez for an extended stay, before and after the ATA 6th Symposium in December, here is some background on Morocco's imperial citiy and symbolic heart, religious and cultural center.
Surrounded by medieval gates and walls, old fez, (the Medina of Fez el-Bali) is a jewel within itself. The area's rich and colorful history is evident everywhere you wander.


With the Sheraton Fès (below) as the home base of ATA's Cultural and Ecoutourism Symposium, the members, clients and guests will find no end of interesting places to explore in every direction. Several prized historic sites are less than an hour from the Sheraton Fes, (below right) our headquarters hotel.

Tanneries in Fez
