Morocco has secured two spots in a new global ranking of the best cities for walking, with Marrakech placing 56th and Fez 60th. The ranking, released by a travel publication, evaluates cities based on factors such as pedestrian infrastructure, safety, and cultural attractions accessible on foot.
Marrakech, known for its historic medina and vibrant souks, was praised for its walkable core, though the ranking noted challenges like traffic congestion in newer districts. Fez, home to one of the world's oldest universities and a UNESCO-listed medina, was recognized for its narrow, car-free streets that encourage exploration by foot.
The list includes cities from around the world, with European destinations dominating the top spots. The ranking aims to guide travelers seeking immersive, pedestrian-friendly experiences. Morocco's inclusion highlights the country's growing reputation as a destination for cultural tourism and urban exploration.
