Tangier, like any other city of Morocco, is famous for its amazing markets. The largest and most popular market of this major port city is the Grand Socco. It is located in the Central part of the Medina, near the famous mosque of Sidi Bou Abib with gorgeous pointed minarets.

The Grand Bazaar is the most bustling and noisy place in Tangier. Each merchant, trying to drown his neighbor for trade, invites you to go to his shop or café, slipping under the nose of the tourist different copper utensils and other Souvenirs. Around the market are posted bustling Eastern sounds of the drums, the smell of red pepper and a delicious roast meat.

The main thing - not to get lost among it all, and carefully watch your wallet in advance to choose the product you wish to buy in the Grand Bazaar in Tangier. All persistent sentences like "buy this lucky stone from the mountain" it is better to reject at once, such as stones on the beach for a few billion. The locals, unlike the Egyptians, understand the word "don't" and "no". If you have already decided on the choice of product you can bargain, Moroccans people are polite, they always make concessions to their customers. The lack of local currency is not an obstacle here would gladly accept both the Euro and the dollar. It should also be noted that the notion of "surrender" in the markets of Tangier simply does not exist.

At the Bazaar "Grand Socco" you can buy a lot of interesting traditional gift: gold jewelry, silver ware, lamps of colored glass and copper, copper and clay utensils with national painting, wool and silk duvets and carpets, and gorgeous leather goods: traditional shoes, embroidered with silver and gold threads, jackets made of camel wool, bags and belts.

Besides the luxurious choice of goods and the "Grand Socco" you can see the amazing performances of snake charmers, street dancers, magicians and fakirs.
