Things to do in Taroudant
A walled market town in the Souss, ringed by six kilometres of earthen ramparts.
Taroudant keeps its full circuit of 16th-century walls and a working souk inside them. It is an agricultural town rather than a tourist one, which is its appeal, and the Anti-Atlas rises immediately to the south.
