SOUKS

Souk al Ghaloul
Some of the best shops for wildly embellished Moroccan baskets as well as simple plain straw. This cluttered courtyard holds a collection of tiny dusty shops filled with odd treasures: here you can sift through stashes of ethnic jewelry, bags, belts and vintage Moroccan tea-trays.
Located off Place Bab Ftouh, enter through the mosaic arch at #56.

Soufiane
The best place to go for the most magical Moroccan wedding blankets with silver sequins. A tiny shop but he has a couple of secret showrooms filled with an amazing selection of Moroccan carpets too.

Souk des Teinturiers
Where the wool dyers of the Medina gather to show off wildly colored sheaves of wool, vats of pigments, and dry powders. It’s a photo op waiting to happen.
Rue Souk Sebbaghine

El Abidi Nasser Eddine
For 30 years, Sidi Nasser has been selling both antique and original jewelry. Whether you buy something or not (he’s not cheap), this should be your first stop for jewelry.
