Taroudant- Travel Tips

What to See, How to Plan & Tours

Taroudant, located in southwestern Morocco's Sous region, lies east of Agadir and south of Marrakesh. Known for its well-preserved city walls dating back to the Saadi dynasty in the 16th century, this historic medina is classified as a national cultural heritage monument. The city is a vibrant market hub, with bustling souks near the main squares of Assarag and Talmoklate, and a weekly market outside the walls. Taroudant has a rich history, including its role as a base for resistance against French colonial rule in the early 20th century, and was once a center of Jewish community and trade.
