Agadir, a walking tour in the old town
Discover the 3rd-century foundations and the spiritual soul of Tlemcen's oldest quarter.
El Eubbad, the quarter of the saints, is the spiritual soul of Tlemcen. The Sidi Boumediene complex — mosque, medersa, and tomb — is one of the masterpieces of Merinid architecture in North Africa. Here, history, faith, and art are one.
From the monumental porch to the quiet courtyard of the mosque, every detail of this place represents the intersection of faith, art, and community. It’s a place where history feels deeply personal. Hamza will guide you through the wall calligraphy, the perfect proportions of the arches, and the stories of pilgrims who walked this path for centuries.
The visit extends into the alleyways of El Eubbad, this hilltop village overlooking the valley — a world apart, suspended between past and present.
