Where to Shop in The Marrakech Medina

Morocco is a true shopper’s paradise. 

With centuries-old souks, authentic craftsmanship, and tiny workshops, the shopping scene offers both old and new. Moroccan crafts are a fundamental part of Moroccan life. Cooperatives have been working wood, metal, copper, wool, linen, stone, and clay into distinctly Moroccan products for centuries. Although Morocco has developed and modernized in many ways, Moroccan arts and crafts are still produced in the traditional ways. Traditional craftsmanship is still highly valued in Moroccan culture as is Moroccan Design.

Everything you need to know about Shopping when traveling to Marrakech is available here in our short guide. The Best Marrakech Boutiques, Antiquaries, Craft Designers & Cooperatives are at your fingertips.
