Essential Free Tour of Tetouan: The Ensanche and the Historic Medina
The tour lasts 2 hours and 30 minutes
Available in English, Spanish, French, Italian and Portuguese
Description
The Ensanche district of Tetouan is one of the city's most unique areas and an exceptional example of Tetouan's recent history. It emerged during the 20th century, around the old Medina, as a new urban space that transformed the city and connected its traditional past with a new architecture.
During the tour, we'll discover its wide avenues, squares, historic buildings, and facades, where Moroccan, Andalusian, and European influences blend together. We'll stroll through emblematic places like Moulay Mehdi Square, formerly Primo de Rivera Square, and observe how the architecture of the Ensanche district reflects the different historical periods that Tetouan has experienced.
Throughout the tour, we will briefly immerse ourselves in the Medina of Tetouan, where we will visit iconic places such as the tanneries and the Jewish quarter.
More than just a modern neighborhood, the Ensanche allows us to understand how Tetuán grew and changed, becoming a meeting point between the traditional city and the contemporary city.
Here we will also talk about the daily life of the people of Tetouan, the old cafes, shops, hotels and buildings that gave personality to this area, and how the Ensanche continues to be one of the liveliest and most representative places in Tetouan today.
We're waiting for you!
