Moroccan Photo of the Day - Dyers' Souk

Today's photograph was taken by renowned Australian satirist, Bryan Dawe. He was given a sneak preview of the nearly completed renovations of the famous Dyers' Souk in Fez


The Fez Dyers' Souk had was in desperate need of saving and thankfully, not only does the work look good, but the notorious pollution problems with the waste water, have been fixed. Hopefully, it will be open and working again within a matter of a couple of months.


This is Bryan Dawes third trip to Fez where he is spending a month as a guest of The View From Fez. Read more about Bryan HERE
