The Place Hedim and Medina Souk Finished Up Meknes, Morocco
The Place Hedim is a large square that divides the Royal area of Meknes from the Medina. Our Explore group was given 30 minutes to walk around on our own. A pittance of time to wander through brief sections of the Medina and do any power shopping let alone investigate the many cafes around the perimeter.
Wonderful looking sweets inside with zillions of bees hovering over them. Goatskin lamp shades in brilliant colors, spices arranged it bright conical shapes, clay tagines and more. Thirty minutes wasn't enough time to investigate even one-tenth of the Medina but the next stop, Volubilis was calling.

Meknes Morocco - One Day Tour
I decided to take a spontaneous trip with a fellow traveller to Meknes, a city 60 km west of Fez. It only took me one hour on the bus (15MAD £1.20) We explored the city, unfortunately most of the shops/ stalls were closed. Visited a underground kara prison that could hold up to 50,000 prisoners. We visited the main square (El Hedim) had a tasty Tajine for lunch, carried on wandering taking in the great atmosphere of the square before heading back to Fez.

Morocco. Meknes.
Frommer'sReview of Place el Hedim
The heart of Meknes's medina, place el Hedim was originally the western corner of the medina until Moulay Ismail demolished the houses to enable a royal approach to his palace. Besides public executions -- of which Moulay Ismail was particularly fond -- and royal announcements, the square was also used as a storage area for the masses of construction material he had pillaged from around Morocco to build his capital. Meknes authorities have recently cleaned up the square, and during the day it is the medina's premier spot to while away some quality people-watching time. Come here in the early evening, especially in the warmer months, to witness musicians, storytellers, and African herboristes taking center stage in a smaller version of Marrakech's Jemaa el Fna spectacle.

Des étals s'étendent tout autour du marché. La place exactement située entre la vieille ville et la partie impériale de la cité, abrite le marché couvert et s'anime au crépuscule :
Le soir venu les cracheurs de feu, conteurs, montreurs d’animaux et bateleurs viennent animer la place, qui prend un tout autre aspect.

Meknes (مكناس) is a city in the Middle Atlas region of Morocco. Quieter and smaller than its grand neighbour Fez, Meknes feels rather overshadowed and receives fewer visitors than it should. It’s more laid-back with less hassle, yet still has all the winding narrow medina streets and grand buildings that it warrants as an imperial city and one-time home of the Moroccan sultanate.
Sultan Moulay Ismail, the architect of Meknes’ glory days, might be a little disgruntled at the city’s current modesty, but visitors will find much to be enchanted by. Remnants of no less than three sets of fortifications, ingeniously incorporated into the city's road networks, make it clear how important this city once was. The king's tomb sits at the heart of what remains of the original imperial city, flanked by an almighty royal granary, the magnificent Bab El Mansour – the likes of which even Fez can't compete with – and Place El Hedim, a local mini-me of Marrakesh's popular square Djemaa El Fna.
Fez driving you nuts? Nearby Meknes is a vibrant, modern city bustling with nightlife, restaurants and an impressive royal palace. Since it's relatively ignored by most tourists, it's also free of the usual hassles (touts, faux guides, etc) that plague the other tourist centers.
While Meknes is an imperial city with a lot of historical monuments and natural sites; It is also the nearest city to the Roman ruins of Volubilis (Oualili). The prices in Meknes are among the most reasonable in Morocco and the people are much more polite and nicer than in the other cities.
The ville nouvelle (new town), which is known as Hamrya in Arabic, is easily navigated on foot, as is the medina. The two sides of town are connected by a bridge over the dry Oued Boufekrane (river), with a McDonald's placed conveniently in between for weary (or wary!) travelers.
Most budget hotels are located along Rue Rouamzine, just before the medina. Hotel Maroc (Q1/2014 100 DH single; shared bathroom) and Hotel Regina (Q1/2014, 80DH single shared bathroom) sare two such choices. Keep in mind that Hotel Regina is very dirty and stinky, but very cheap.
Meknes Attractions such as :
Bab Mansour: Bab means gate or door in Arabic, and Bab Mansour is the largest and most striking of Meknes' many gates (27 gates). It's directly across from Place Hedim, the medina's main square.
Place Hedim: Recently redone with new brickwork, this square once rivaled Djemaa el Fna in Marrakech but is now significantly less exciting (though there are a few nice cafes and snack spots in which to people-watch).
Heri es-Souani: You can catch a glimpse of the grandeur of Moulay Ismail at these granaries, and sit beside the enormous Agdal Basin.
Meknes Royal Golf Course: This place is absolutely marvellous. The gardens are beautifully kept and it is entirely surrounded by palace walls
Medersa Bou Inania: A beautiful Qur'anic school.
Dar Jamai: Now a museum (Musèe Dar Jamai in French), this old palace is located at the back of Place Hedim. It now houses the Museum of Moroccan Arts, which is currently exhibiting artifacts, jewels, and old copies of the Qur'an.
Habs Qara: A huge underground prison where Moulay Ismail allegedly kept prisoners.
Mausoleum of Moulay Ismail : Although non-Muslims are not permitted to enter, they can view the tombs, which hold the body of Moulay Ismail and other relatives, from the entrance.
Al masjid AlAdam: Meknes' largest and oldest standing mosque (note: Non-Muslims are not permitted entry).
Medina of Meknes Mosque: A mosque that is built near a Qur'an school, which was built in 1350.
