Taroudant Holidays 2012 – Small and compact market town
This quaint Moroccan town is often called ‘smaller Marrakech’ as it is a more compact and calmer version of the Moroccan capital city. It is located in the Sous Valley, only an hour away from the coastal resort of Agadir and three hours from Marrakech, at the foot of the stunning backdrop of the High Atlas Mountains. The feel of Taroudant is that of a small market town and an oasis on route to the Sahara Desert. Generally, the pace of life on your holidays in Taroudant is slow and relaxed. You can feel it especially when you are walking through the ancient part of the town encircled by its historic walls. The streets are filled with a mixture of colours and smells coming from the local restaurants. On your Taroudant holidays you will be able to discover various craft shops proudly owned by the local craftsmen and you are sure to grab a bargain on a Moroccan rug or a locally produced piece of jewellery.
