Shopping

Jewellery Souq

Offline map Google map With its long history of silversmiths, the jewellery souq has some of
the best work in southern Morocco. It’s a pleasant place to wander, with blue-doored shops
and windows full of silver wares. Some of the jewellery is made in Tiznit, and some bought from
Saharan tribes to the south. You will need time to look around and bargain to get the best
prices.
