In this video, we walk around the city of Taroudant (Tachelhit: Tarudant, ⵜⴰⵔⵓⴷⴰⵏⵜ; Arabic: تارودانت, tārūdānt, [taːruːdaːnt]) which is located in the Sous valley in Morocco, about 80km off the Atlantic coast. I take you to several mosque and through the medina. We pass multiple time close to and around the walls of the old city, the fortifications. We walk through a souk / market, small streets, large avenues and to authentic and traditional neighborhoods.
Taroudant is situated east of Agadir on the road to Ouarzazate and the Sahara desert and south of Marrakesh. The town is known as the "Grandmother of Marrakech" because it looks like a smaller Marrakech with its surrounding ramparts. In the sixteenth century, the Saadi dynasty briefly used Taroudant as a capital before it moved its royal seat onwards to Marrakesh. Today, the city has the feel of a small fortified market town on a caravan route. Taroudant is known for its local crafts, including jewellery and carpets.
Unlike Marrakesh, almost the entire city of Taroudant is located inside its walls. A new part of the city is being developed outside the city walls around the campus of a faculty of the Ibn Zohr University of Agadir.
The Medina of Taroudant is the oldest part of the city of Taroudant. It was the first capital city of the Saadi dynasty before moving to Marrakech.
The town walls are nearly 6 kilometres long and are set with bastions and punctuated by nine gates that are still in use. Outside the wall is a small tannery mainly in the business of travel equipment for camel riding, such as goat skin, camel hide sandals, leather bags and belts.
The Berber market, called Jnane al-Jaami, sells spices and dried fruits but mostly clothes and household goods. The Berber souk, as well specializes in handicrafts such as terracotta, wrought iron, pottery, brass and copper, leather and carpets, rugs and jewellery.
