Greetings from Fez, Morocco! We’re here for a two week tour. Today was our third day here, and we spent the morning at Volubilis, the largest of the Romans’ 17 colonies established in Morocco between the first century BCE and the 2nd century CE. It poured rain on our drive from Rabat, but the sun began to shine just as we arrived at the site. The French excavated the ruins here, rebuilding several of the ruins piece by piece, during the early 20th century.
There are more photos to share, but not taken within 5 minutes. Internet here is slow, my keyboard for the iPad isn’t working, and this post has taken forever, so I’ll save the commentary for later. Linking up with Sandie at Itchifingers for her monthly 5 in 5 meme.
Hello,Karen,
Nice to see you again.
青空の中の廃墟の写真は 格別です!

Great to hear that they were excavated from their deep sleep.
Enjoy your trip!Thank you for sharing!

They look great. A fabulous 5 in 5 and I look forward to seeing more when you return.
Oh, I hope it’s been a fabulous trip!!
Can’t wait to hear more! I love seeing ruins, but I’m always slightly disappointed to learn that they were “rebuilt” or “recreated” and not original. But then I guess it can’t all be expected to withstand the test of time!
