Don’t miss a visit to the famous Chaouwara Tanneries, where you can observe the entire leather stripping, dying, and drying process unfold before your eyes from one of the many viewing platforms surrounding the tannery courtyard. The smell is as iconic as the destination itself, and you can shop from the best selection of leather products you’ll find anywhere in the country.
