*********************************
In December 1996, Meknes was declared World Heritage Site by the UNESCO Government Committee.
It is one of the four Imperial cities in Morocco. During the reign of Mulay Ismail (1672 - 1727), it enjoyed a period of prosperity and what remains of the grandeur of that previous age, makes this city an important place to visit in every trip to Morocco. Mulay Ismail chose Meknes as the capital of the country for strategic reasons as well as for political and geographical factors. Apart from its architectural importance (evident even to the less informed tourists), the Casbah in Meknes enjoys a unique importance since it was the first achievement of the Alaouites Dynasty, the dynasty that has been in power, reigning for over 300 years.
