- Duración: 2 h
- Temporada: All year · best from April to June and in September and October
- Para quién: Everyone, with slopes and steps

Walk · 2 h · Whitewashed alleys painted blue above the square, best from 7:00 to 9:00, before the shops open.

The medina climbs the hillside from Uta el-Hammam square towards the Souika quarter and the Bab el-Ain gate. The most photographed streets are above the square: painted steps, flowerpots on the façades and wooden doors. You do not need a map: if you walk downhill, you end up in the square.
Set out early. Between seven and nine the streets are empty and the light is soft; by mid-morning the wool weaving workshops and carpet shops open, and the tour groups arrive. Ask permission before photographing locals, and do not sit on people's doorsteps for the photo.
