Dar Bennani is located
at 18 Derb Il Rom which resides in the marvelous and carefully
preserved imperial city of Fes located in the Northern African
country of Morocco. Fes embodies the essence of Morocco's aromas,
shapes, colors and has been called the soul of the entire
nation.
This beautiful home is located in the Batha district
just minutes from the main gate Bab Boujeloud off Talaa Sghira. This
traditional Moroccan Home (Dar / Riad) features an open courtyard to
the sky, large rooms, salons and the classic architecture of the
period.
The great tannery work
affords a marvelous spectacle. Small round or square cubes cut into
the floor are filled with a thousand and one different colors. The
hustle and bustle around these cubes of colors is constantly kept up
by men who devote their energy to cutting animal hides in their bare
feet, a spectacle of rare beauty.
The Nejjarine quarter
borders the henna souk. The pleasant odor of cedar will stimulate
your senses and attract you into shops where cabinetmakers work
their wood so skillfully.
One of the finest fountains in the
city rises in this square: the Nejjarine fountain, a must for all
tourists.
