Volubilis, an ancient Berber-Roman metropolis nestled in Morocco's proximity, near the urban center of Meknes, conceivably acted as the epicenter of the Mauretanian Kingdom, a role it might have assumed during the reign of King Juba II. Prior to the ascendancy of Volubilis, the kingdom's seat of power possibly resided in Gilda.

Embarking on this journey, commence with an exploration of formidable fortifications graced with monumental entrances that trace their origins back to the seventeenth-century, namely the venerable Berdaïne Bab and Bab Khemis. The odyssey unfolds with an in-depth scrutiny of the urban landscape, traversing the equine abode (Rua), lofty lofts (HERI), and the esteemed Stud. Pause and ponder at the hallowed resting place of Moulay Ismail, an exquisite sanctum which, for an extended period, extended its welcome to non-Muslim visitors in the realm of Morocco. Finally, take your leave through the iconic Bab Mansour El, which grants passage onto the expansive expanse of Hedim Square. On the opposite end of this grand square, the Museum of Moroccan Art, known as "Dar Jamai," awaits to enthrall you with its diverse collection of artisanal creations.
