Unusual Phenomenon in Fez: Citizens Resort to Highway Sides to Escape the Heat

In an unusual phenomenon witnessed in the Moroccan city of Fez this summer, many citizens have resorted to gathering along the sides of the highway at the city entrance, seeking refuge from the intense heatwave.

This phenomenon comes amid a severe shortage of green spaces, public gardens, and parks within the city, prompting residents to search for unconventional alternatives to enjoy cooler atmospheres.

Despite the inherent danger of this behavior, especially with speeding cars on the highway, many families, including children, have chosen this location as a temporary haven from the summer heat.

In this context, local authorities have urged citizens to exercise caution, particularly in monitoring children closely to avoid any potential accidents. They also called for maintaining the cleanliness and aesthetics of the city entrance.

This phenomenon highlights the urgent need to provide sufficient green spaces and parks within the city to meet the needs of residents, especially during the hot summer season.

The question remains about what measures local authorities will take to address this issue and provide safe and suitable alternatives for citizens to enjoy their leisure time away from the summer heat.
