Bab el-Khemis Gate, Meknes, Fes-Meknes Region, Morocco
Faultlessly hugging the Bab El-Khemis Gate is the prehistoric wall that still stands majestically in Meknes. The name Bab El-Khemis is Arabic for Thursday’s Door and behind the walls it serves as an entrance to the space used as a flea market in Meknes.
You are bound to find treasures and other odds and ends in this space. You just have to be an ardent treasure hunter. You can buy merchandise ranging from antiqued wooden doors as big as a gate to ornately styled wooden doors to all types of Moroccan doors you come across.
If you are redecorating your home and in search of unique doors and gates, I would suggest you book a ticket to Meknes and get yourself to Bab El-Khemis.
