Spectacular Celebration of the Cherry Festival

The ancient walled town of Sefrou lies on the slopes of the Middle Atlas Mountains, in close proximity to the city of Fez in Morocco. The mountainous terrain and temperate climate make the region around Sefrou an ideal environment for cultivating cherries. The thousands of cherry trees make an exquisite display when they are covered in blossoms, and harvest time (around mid-June) is more than enough reason for the friendly inhabitants of this lovely Moroccan town to celebrate – and there is no doubt that the Cherry Festival is a joyous celebration.
