Meknes

The next stop was another of Morocco's imperial cities - Meknes. Again, the marketplace was the centre of the action, and because of a more sedate pace we were able to wander around and fully appreciate the wonderful array of food on offer. There were also less tourists about, which meant the hassle factor from the stall owners was far less as well - a real plus! Meknes had an authentic feel about it, which we liked...

Spectacular Moroccan design in Meknes

Mostly just locals in the Meknes souq, which was a nice change!

Glasses at the ready for our afternoon dose of mint tea

The work of an artistic spice vendor

The sweet section - look closely and you can

see the ubiquitous bees

Some local favourites - olives and preserved lemons

Another day, another tajine...
