Aswak Assalam

This Western-style supermarket just outside Bab Doukkala is ideal for stocking up for long bus journeys.
Atelier Moro

Above the gate beside the Mouassine fountain, this shop sells exquisite own-label clothing and accessories, plus jewellery by local designers.
Aya’s

It may be hard to find (a door away from Le Tanjia), but worth seeking out for exotic clothing, as well as curiosities such as saucy “ethnic” postcards from the 1920s.
Bazaar du Sud

Of the countless carpet shops in the souk, this has possibly the largest selection of all, backed up by a highly professional sales service.
Beldi

This tiny boutique at the entrance to the souks showcases the work of brothers Toufik and Abdelhafid. They adapt Moroccan clothing for Western tastes to stunning effect.
Café du Livre

A secondhand bookshop with some new titles connected with Morocco and Islam.
Centre Artisanal

This vast government-run storehouse is just a few minutes’ walk from the Saadian Tombs. You’ll find an array of traditional Moroccan handicrafts, from carpets to pottery. The prices are fixed, so no haggling (see Centre Artisanal ).
Cordonnerie Errafia

A small shoemaker who specializes in stylish loafers fashioned from raffia for men, and more decorative ones for women.
Creation Chez Abdel

Contemporary pottery with a traditional glaze finish or a gorgeous tadelakt effect. Impossible to resist.
De Velasco

De Velasco houses some serious (and seriously expensive) antiques, from giant vases to Orientalist paintings and glorious kaftans.
