You step through one of Taroudant’s monumental gates and the city changes cadence—the market calls, the air warms, and the earthen walls hold the day in place. Narrow alleys open into sunlit souk stalls where copper glints and silverwork catches the eye; beyond them the flat plains roll toward the Anti-Atlas, a low line on the horizon.
