2. The Souk (Market) of Ounagha
Now, the Souk in Ounagha, that area? That is clearly where it totally gets real. And when I say ‘real,’ I more or less mean real, like, authentic Ounagha life. Seriously, though, this market’s totally where you’ll find everything from seriously, handmade crafts, so too it’s almost Berber carpets to spice stalls that really smell of things you never could even expect, and it actually feels like, so, you’re, like, properly stepping right into the heart of the local culture itself. Apparently, vendors usually offer all the history behind the things that, naturally, they are very selling, and it often ends up like a real experience, and just bartering for items is quite something of an art form, itself, there, at the market. In that case, get ready to basically flex those negotiation muscles and potentially even find, clearly, some seriously cool treasures, alright?

3. The Ancient Kasbah
Oh, and you know what is very worth checking out? It’s the Kasbah. I mean, it could be any Kasbah, or basically, could even be the Ancient Kasbah. Apparently, that building seems to be a real piece of history. Basically, these Kasbahs really were these fortified buildings that used to very offer protection, and it seems they were showing off Berber architectural design too. So, the Ancient Kasbah, basically, tends to be an interesting spot because it kinda shows, maybe in a real way, how people seemingly used to live way back in the day around there. When you walk though there, you almost kinda feel as though you, like, step way back, in a way, and what with the old walls kinda whispering stories of generations long gone. Honestly, you don’t want to be missing that experience, I suspect, for sure. Read our full review: Ancient Kasbah Ounagha Full Review and Details See Prices, Availability & Reserve Now (Kasbah Tours)
4. Local Artisan Workshops
So, I would kinda say if you seriously would like to, maybe in a very, way see exactly how that beautiful Moroccan craftsmanship very comes about, anyway, try making it a seriously big priority to visit one of the local artisan workshops there, alright? Apparently, you’ll find artists and craftspeople are very often working, alright, on everything, like, seriously amazing wood carvings to leather goods or, in some respects, ceramics that are really all made in the area. And here’s the kinda cool part: You possibly might be very, very able to, sort of, get a chance to really, too it’s almost, see how they actually create all those things and probably could get a lesson, possibly even getting to sorta, basically, make something yourself. In that case, look out for an artisan’s shop. It is like gold dust and seemingly totally lets you kinda properly take part in that culture by usually learning to create things traditionally, and who knows? Perhaps you will make something that you absolutely adore there! Read our full review: Artisan Workshops Ounagha Full Review and Details See Prices, Availability & Reserve Now (Workshops Timetable)
5. Traditional Music and Dance Performances
As a matter of fact, you want to see a bit of culture right, then it’s almost certainly music you seek. So, in order to really sorta experience it properly, I tend to usually really be watching or seeing traditional music and dance that seems to happen so often around, really, Ounagha; this, by the way, seems seriously wonderful and I just know, anyway, if it happens there at any time, or nearly anytime, it could very bring some serious excitement! Anyway, lots of those spots in town really have local musicians come and seemingly play that seriously special Moroccan stuff with really ancient songs and traditional instruments, right? This makes for a seriously unforgettable way, still, to not only sorta celebrate but sorta get totally involved into, perhaps, even immersed into, Ounagha’s vibe while getting, clearly, pretty clued-up when it tends to be about its kinda traditions too! So too it’s almost definitely that kinda thing one possibly can’t simply kinda pass up and might, certainly, even change their perception.
