A very special item to buy in Marrakech is argan, a plant grown in Morocco’s southern regions. There are two types of argan: cosmetic and culinary, so you need to be careful when purchasing it as cosmetic argan has an unpleasantly bitter taste.
Marrakech is a great place in Morocco to buy traditional musical instruments. You can purchase drums, rababs, qanuns, taarijas, and ouds. They all make fantastic souvenirs!
Another great souvenir from Marrakech is leather products. Leather is used to make any number of items, from bags to boots. You will find many different qualities of leather made with different types of skin, including camel and goat.
If you are wondering what else to buy in Marrakech, you cannot miss handmade ceramics! Plates, tajine dishes, bowls, and candleholders in bright colors and different styles are everywhere in Marrakech markets.
Fragrant aromas and bright colors are what characterize Moroccan spices. Saffron, turmeric, cumin, and ras al hanout are among the best spices you can buy in Marrakech souks.
