 Goat Cheese by jamiesno
I tasted the goat's cheese and it was great. If you are planning on making a good Paella upon return it is a great place to buy the spice saffron at great prices. This is where the spice comes from and this is where the prices are best!
Never pay the asking price, in Morocco everything is negotiable. Sort of reminded me of Mexico in that regard. Leave a Comment Theme: Food and Drink

 Hand Made Carpets by jamiesno
In this gallery the handmade carpets where amazing. All from natural fibres with no coloring added to them. They were very high quality and appeared they could not be burnt or cut by a knife based on demonstrations. Each carpet could take anywhere from 6 months to a year to make.
Again in Morocco, don't pay the asking price, I recommending aiming for 1/4 or less. Hey it's worth trying, but never ever pay more than you are comfortable with, no one likes that feeling. Leave a Comment Theme: Local CraftDirections: Medina Center.

 Hard Working Carpet Chap by freya_heaven
This tip is the same as my warnings tip (Just to save you reading it again, if you already have )........................... (~_~)
Our Tour Guide took us to a local Shopping Centre which actually turned out to be a Very hard sell carpet shop.
May the hard sell commence......................................
We were all separated up and each put in a carpet room and given Mint Tea.
Then a boy had to unroll dozens of carpets, as he did it we had to seperate them in to like and dislike piles. From the offset we had repeatedly told the sales man we had no intention of buying a carpet, but it fell on deaf ears.
After what seemed 100 carpet unrolling's later, the sales man ungraciously conceded defeat and stormed out of the room, leaving the poor carpet unroller to rull them all up again.
Out of a group of about 10 we were the only ones to walk away empty handed, so it obviously works on most people.
I have to say the carpets were beautiful, and maybe another time we would have bought one, but in the middle of a 5 month trip, home improvements were not our top priority (~_~)
On the plus side it was the nicest mint tea I have ever tasted Leave a Comment Theme: Local Craft

This was a very special treat in our stop at Tetouan. At first I thought it was just a museum, every carpet they show, you are allowed to buy. Morocco makes the 2nd nicest rugs after the Persian rugs, so these were pretty high quality. There was also a gift shop downstairs where you could buy things other than rugs.
Well rugs are a main product. but there is a giftshop downstairs that has alot of other local handicraft.
I bought a carpet that was 100 Euros, and then a special box for around 50 euros. Leave a Comment Theme: Local CraftDirections: In the Medina (Old walled part) of the city.
