EDITORS COMMENTS
Basking in the golden glow of the North African sun, the ancient ruins of Volubilis in Meknes, Morocco, stand as a testament to the rich history and cultural diversity of this fascinating region. This image showcases the grandeur of the Forum and Capitolin Temple, two of the most significant structures in this UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Forum, once the heart of political and social life in Volubilis, is now a sprawling expanse of crumbling columns and intricately carved bas-reliefs. The Capitolin Temple, dedicated to the Capitoline Triad - Jupiter, Juno, and Minerva - is a masterpiece of Roman architectural prowess, with its towering columns and ornate decorative elements. Nestled at the foot of the majestic Atlas Mountains and surrounded by the lush valley, Volubilis offers a unique blend of ancient history and breathtaking landscapes. The ruins lie in stark contrast to the vibrant, colorful Moroccan countryside, creating a striking juxtaposition that draws visitors from all corners of the globe.

The ruins of Volubilis serve as a reminder of the enduring power of history and the importance of preserving our cultural heritage for future generations. Whether you're an archaeology enthusiast, a history buff, or simply an intrepid traveler seeking adventure, a visit to Volubilis is a must-do experience. So, come and explore this ancient city, where the echoes of the past still resonate in the present, and let the stories of this remarkable place transport you back in time.
