Dar Moqri, Palace in Fes el-Bali, Morocco.

The palace complex spans two grand residences connected to each other, featuring extensive interiors, terraced gardens, and elongated courtyards with Moroccan designs.

The Moqri family, who migrated from Tlemcen to Fez in 1805, constructed this palace around 1880 during their rise to power in the royal court.

The palace displays a mix of traditional Moroccan and Italian architectural elements across its rooms, including music pavilions, hammams, and decorated galleries.

Located in the former garden district of al-'Uyun, the palace covers one hectare of land with three terraced levels offering views across Fez.

The palace layout breaks from traditional design by incorporating a dual-axis arrangement instead of the typical single main axis found in Moroccan architecture.
