Chefchaouen, Morocco

Shopping Tour in Chefchaouen

The best shopping in Chefchaouen isn't in the malls — it's on the streets. Independent boutiques, artisan workshops, vintage stores, and morning markets are scattered through neighborhoods that reward the walker with discoveries you can't find online.

Chefchaouen's blue-washed medina nestled in the Rif Mountains is one of the most photogenic walking destinations in the world. Every alley reveals another shade of blue, from powder to cobalt, against a backdrop of green peaks.

Top Shopping Tour Spots

•The Blue Medina — a compact labyrinth of powder-to-cobalt-blue painted houses nestled in the Rif Mountains, founded in 1471 as a refuge fortress
•Plaza Uta el-Hammam — the central square of the blue medina, anchored by a 15th-century kasbah and surrounded by cafe terraces under old trees
•Kasbah Museum — a small museum in the 15th-century kasbah fortress with ethnographic displays, weapons, and photographs of Rif Mountain Berber culture

Hidden Shopping Tour Gems

•Akchour Waterfalls — a spectacular series of cascades in the nearby Talassemtane National Park
