Arriving in Fez, we find at the entrance to Sefrou on the left the walls of the city, pierced by a monumental door is the main entrance of the Medina.

This white town at the foot of the Middle Atlas had already acquired some importance in the twelfth century, thanks to its situation between Fez and Tafilalet. She won her real dynamism in the fourteenth century, with the arrival of a large Jewish community of Algeria. Mellah (Jewish quarter), which enjoyed six hundred years of life, is as large as the rest of the ancient city, crossed by the river aggaï, spanned several arched bridges and turns into refreshing waterfalls limits from the city.

The city is surrounded by orchards with cherries are renowned. In June the Cherry festival gives rise to folk events. The long Sebou follows its course here in deep gorges with red walls. A show which can be seen from the road that connects the south of Fez, Sidi Harazem in El Menzel, crossing a landscape of orchards protected by tall poplars.
