A carpenters' souk, amid the scent of cedar wood, making skewer handles and table legs

The narrow stalls are full of hilarious kids who will amaze you with the precision and meticulousness of their work. It is in the carpenters' souk that most of the wooden pieces sold in the new town or in the wood souk are made. Amidst the scents of cedar or olive wood, they make skewer handles, table legs or moucharabiehs, with an art that borders on goldsmithing, using only a coarse bow or a rudimentary slicer from another century. A true open-air museum.

J’adore voir travailler les artisans. En plus ils sont vraiment sympa, vous explique, montre aux enfants et les prix sont super bas. A voir rien que pour le plaisir des yeux comme vous entendrez tous les 10m
Smell of cedar wood, unforgettable! and the small wooden objects which you can buy some dirhams. With not missing!
