10 Top Markets In Fez

Markets in Morocco—called souks locally—can become endless labyrinths that are hard to get out of. This can especially be the case in Fez as the narrow streets can cause visitors to get lost in the old imperial city, but here are 10 accessible souks located in the Medina.

Souk Mejjadliene

Souk Mejjadliene offers splendid traditional belts that usually go with kaftans or djellabas, but the belts can also be incorporated into a modern outfit with a Moroccan twist to it.

Souk Serrajine

Ranging in colour and material from leather to animal skin or even regular fabric slippers, this is the main place to get Moroccan slippers from. Make sure to grab a pair or two as a souvenir.

Souk Tillisse

This souk sells handmade Moroccan rugs at a fair price. It is a market locals often visit and where visitors will see the true colours of Moroccan streets. Rugs vary in colour, fabric, style of making, size, and much more. This is the ‘Ali Baba Cavern’ for rugs.

Souk Haïk

This is another market that sells all kinds of slippers, but don’t forget to take in the peaceful atmosphere thanks to the surrounding the whole souk and sounds of birds around the market.

Souk Jeld

Souk Jeld literally means ‘Leather Market’ in Moroccan. They offer leather bags, poufs, slippers, and even boots. Definitely worth having a look in here.
