A man closing the doors at Bou Inania Madrasa

A man closing the doors at Bou Inania Madrasa, Fes el Bali, Morocco. An ancient madrasa from the Marinid dynasty, founded approximately AD 1351–56 by Abu Inan Faris. It has stunning architectural carvings in both the stone and the woodwork, as well as lovely tilework throughout. It was a beautiful place to visit and I have many more photos to share soon.
