Chefchaouen, Morocco 23 October 2006
A man walks in a street of Chefchaouen, during the celebrations of Eid al-Adhaat.
The town was founded in 1492 by Moorish exiles from Spain. Chefchaouen or Chaouen (or Xaouen, from the Spanish), as it is often called by Moroccans, is a popular tourist destination given its proximity to Tangier and the Spanish border. The name simply refers to the characteristic shapes of the mountain tops that tower over the town, that look like the two horns (chaoua) of a goat.
Chefchaouen has blue-rinsed houses and buildings, following a tradition that comes from the town's former Jewish population.
