MEDINA, TETOUAN

There is no normal sewage system in the most of medina. All liquid rubbish flows in the middle of some streets. I have never seen such "sewage system" anywhere else in Morocco.

So, my advice is to be extremely carefull about food sold in the street, better not to buy anything on the streets.

Narrow Streets

When you are visiting Tetouan it will be like nothing you've seen before most likely. I didn't see any street names and it was literally like a maze. I would be very careful not to get lost and careful of where you might wonder. For the most part it seems safe and many different religions live side by side but I am sure there is the chance of getting pick pocketed and being confronted with a language barier can be scary in those odd moments.

	Faux Guide is a thing of the past

Tetouan has a very bad reputatation, may be it did deserve it in the past. But I don’t think it should have that reputation anymore. The city is very safe and I did not encounter any hustler what so ever despite walking in the old madina carring my lonely planet or the rough guide and taking pictures so frequently, my actions were non event and did not attract any unwanted attention from the locals.

I even went out of my way and asked the locals about my hotel and I was always directed to the correct direction and no one suggested any alternative or attempted to direct me somewhere else. I asked the locals to show me where the Synagogue and Bab Aloklah where but no body tried to any thing unusual.
