Das Erbe der Vergangenheit: Räumliche Ordnung und überlieferter Baubestand als persistenter Handlungsrahmen Das Nutzungspotential des Naturraums Wenn wir Fes mit anderen berühmten orientalisch-islamischen Stüdten ver­ gleichen - mit Marrakech oder Kairouan, Kairo oder Bagdad, Damaskus oder Isfahan, Herat oder Samarkand -, dann erscheint es von der Landesnatur in mehrfacher Hinsicht begünstigt: Das Wadi Fes und die von ihm abgeleiteten Kanäle sowie viele Quellen im Stadtbereich versorgen die Stadt reichlich mit frischem Wasser; schon in mittelalterlichen Reiseberichten, aber auch noch in solchen des vergangenen Jahrhunderts wird immer wieder der Reichtum an fließendem Wasser hervorgehoben- zum Trinken, Waschen, Kühlen, Erfrischen und für vielfältige gewerbliche Nutzung: "Überall frisches Wasser, sprudelnd im reichsten Überfluß" berichtet F. BucHSER von seinem Aufenthalt in Fes 1858. Die Flüßchen, Bäche und Kanäle lieferten gleichzeitig genügend Energie zum Betreiben von Hunderten von Getreidemühlen sowie von Wasserrädern für Göpelwerke und einfache Maschinen: Einige kräftig eingeschnittene Täler führen im Stadtgebiet zu Höhenunterschieden von fast 100 m; damit ist fast überall genügend Gefälle vorhanden.
