Chefchaouen is a town in the northwest of the Kingdom of Morocco. Chefchaouen was founded in 1471 by Jews and Moors escaping from Spain. The original name of the city derives from the Berber word “Ashawen” which means “The Horns”. Chefchaouen is considered to be a holy city with eight mosques and a number of different zaouias and marabouts. There are various theories regarding its blue color.
