Volubilis is the largest Roman archaeological site in Morocco north of Meknes
Many elements of the former city are easily recognizable, the Jupiter Temple, the Caracalla Triumphal Arch, the Basilica, the sewers and various mosaics. Under Roman rule, a flourishing city emerged, which later became the capital of the northwestern Roman province of Mauretania Tingitana.
The well-preserved former settlement of the Roman Empire lies north of Meknes and is worth a visit for its unique floor mosaics. On an area of about 40 hectares you get a good overview of the Roman living culture in North Africa.
