Snabba fakta: Local vendors offer a vibrant mix of fresh seafood, spices, and handmade crafts, filling the air with incredible aromas. The market pulses with energy as locals barter and laugh, creating a lively, authentic atmosphere.
Höjdpunkter: Marvel at the colorful array of preserved lemons and piles of saffron, prized in Moroccan cuisine and brought from nearby Atlas Mountains. Watch the fishermen skillfully fillet fish right in front of you, a tradition that connects the market directly to the Atlantic Ocean.
