| Moulay Idriss is the home of the tomb of Idris I, founder of Islamic Morocco. |
 |
| The entrance to the mosque and mausoleum complex is at the bottom of the hill, but for the best views you must climb to the top. |
 |
| The city is an important pilgrimage site; non-Muslims were not allowed to stay overnight in the city until 2005. |
 |
| The multi-story buildings have been built the same way for centuries using local materials. |
 |
| A cylindrical minaret with Kufic-script was also built in the city. |
 |
| The hike, and the local guide that took us to the top, is worth it. |
 |
| Storks make great use of the powerlines between Moulay Idriss and Meknes. |
