Tetouan Medina

The most Andalusian medina in Morocco — built almost entirely by Moorish refugees from Granada after 1492. The street names, the house forms, the tiled doorsteps, the garden courtyards — all transplanted from a Spain that no longer exists. UNESCO listed it in 1997. The medina is remarkably intact because Tetouan was under Spanish rather than French Protectorate, and the Spanish left the old city largely alone.
