Tnine Berber Market


Tnine means Monday in Arabic and every week on this day there is the Berber market. It is the biggest market in Ourika and folks gather from near and far for their weekly supplies and more. The market is a place to socialise, to inform about local news, to hear the latest gossip, to visit the barber or consult traditional doctors. Groceries are bought, deals are made and when all business is done donkey backs, trucks and local taxi's are loaded with the new supplies for the journey back home.

    1. Hi Linda, definitely more fun than the average supermarket! Not sure if I'd recommend a new haircut though unless of course you're really, really into retro!
