Shopping in Morocco can be very fruitful once you are accustomed to the bargaining system. Below are some examples of what can be found. Bear in mind that the Moroccans excel in copying designer labels.

Fossils – Morocco is a treasure trove for geologists.

Food – argan oil can be bought at reasonable prices locally. A vegetarian’s paradise. All meat is halal and usually locally produced and freshly slaughtered. The additive-free diet, together with the dry climate, are excellent health restorers.

Basically, if you think of something you need you will find it in the souk or artesan shops. There are also a number of second hand markets where unusual treasures can be found.
