3 reviews of Rissani Market

mansions of wealthy merchants

We are near the desert, the air is dry and strangely hot, though it's hard to describe ... you don't understand it until you're there, it's different to what we know. An almost lunar landscape, with an oasis of palm
that's they've tried to contain with small fences but it's not possible. Women are much more covered up, and markets seem like the're from movies of the past. There are ancient ksars in Rissani and nearby towns. The Ksars were old mansions of wealthy merchants and the royal family of yesteryear, with over a century of existence.
