Message from Lara and Aldin

Tucked away in one of the quieter corners of the medina, this vibrant alley feels like you’ve stepped into a living color palette. Strings of freshly dyed wool hang overhead in bold shades of orange, saffron, and indigo, swaying gently in the breeze—it’s a visual treat for any photographer or curious traveler.

You’ll find this gem inside Souk des Teinturiers, also known as the Dyers’ Souk. This is where traditional artisans have been practicing the ancient art of dyeing fabrics for generations. If you’re lucky, you might even catch them stirring massive vats of boiling dye or hanging wet yarns to dry in the sun—it’s fascinating to watch and totally unique to this spot.

It’s free to visit and makes for an amazing photo stop, especially in the morning when the light is soft and the alleys are less crowded. Whether you're after bold photos or a peek into authentic Moroccan craftsmanship, this little alleyway is well worth the detour.
