Additional Information

Taroudant is a captivating visual spectacle. Established prior to the advent of Islam, the city hit its peak in the XVI century when it was declared the capital by the Saadians and christened Mohamédia. Vestiges from this era remain in the form of an 8 km long earthen wall, a standing testament to historical conflicts. Entering the medina via one of the magnificent five city gates feels akin to time travel.

At a glance, the city’s nested lanes and passageways might seem chaotically arranged, but they adhere to a meticulous hierarchy. The mosque represents the focal point, with the bustling souk where gifted craftsmen ply their trade surrounding it. The souk is neatly segmented to accommodate various crafts, organized in a specific sequence from lowest to highest valued skills. The residences are designed around a central courtyard, maintaining the privacy of city dwellers from outsiders. All this contributes to Taroudant’s overwhelmingly tranquil ambiance.
