    Souk des Teinturiers

    Marrakech is world-famous for its leather and traditional handicrafts, and one of the best places to experience this is Souk Cherratine. Tucked inside the medina, this souk is lined with workshops where skilled artisans craft bags, belts, poufs, and sandals using age-old techniques. The scent of freshly tanned leather fills the air, and you’ll see craftsmen cutting, stitching, and shaping each piece by hand. Alongside leather, you’ll also find beautifully made trunks, saddles, and other hand-worked goods, making Souk Cherratine the perfect stop to discover the authentic artistry that keeps Marrakech’s heritage alive.
