Built in a mix of Moroccan and Andalusian architecture, the medina is the heart of laid-back Chefchaouen. Exploring the streets and the local houses and finding the best photography shots are the main things to do here. At the centre of Medina lies the cobbled Plaza Uta El-Hammam, lined with street food stalls, cafes, and restaurants. The Chefchaouen Kasbah is also located within the medina.
The 15th-century clay-brown building houses a lovely garden, a former prison, an ethnographic museum, and an art gallery. The top of the main minaret offers a spectacular view of the city.
