Chella with Salah

These are pictures of Salah being a tourist in his own country. I gave him a full tour with history and important facts.

This is the main entrance to the Chella necropolis a Roman and Marinid Arabe who has several royal family tombs there.

This is a school which housed students wanting to learn the koran.

This pool would be filled with water and you would do your washings here before prayer.

You can see how beautiful and green the country side is. This area was used as a port town for the Roman and it was the farthest west they settled. 70% of the Roman Empires wheat came from this area.

I think this is part of the temple of jupiter. Not exactly for sure on that one.

The Marinid Chella necropolis sits within a larger fortified site defined by massive six to twenty-meter-high perimeter ramparts. The plan of the walled area, derived from the layout of the Roman city of Sala Colonia, is an irregular five sided polygon that forms a trapezoid with one sheared corner. The site ranges from 265 to 310 meters in width along its east-west axis, and from 180 to 265 meters in length along its north-south axis. The longitudinal axis of the site is rotated forty-five degrees counter-clockwise from the north-south meridian. http://archnet.org/library/sites/one-site.jsp?site_id=2580
