Grand Socco Food Market

Next to the square on April 9, in the Medina of Tangier, we found this indoor market which forms part of the Grand Souk, the largest market in Tangier. It is very interesting to visit and observe Moroccan tradition. There are numerous stalls selling chicken, beef, lamb, a variety of vegetables and very cheap fruit (1kilo of tomatoes costs approximately 10 cents and 1 kilo of strawberries 20cents). Another speciality are the spices, cloves, black and white pepper, curry, cumin, cinnamon etc. all at great prices. Green tea is also sold here, a favourite in Morocco. The best, according to several people told us, is the brand La Menara.
