A visit to the Chaouwara Tanneries offers a unique opportunity to witness the traditional process of leather-making firsthand. As you explore the site, you’ll be able to observe every stage, from the stripping of animal hides to the dyeing and drying of the leather, all from the surrounding viewing platforms that give you a clear and immersive view of the bustling courtyard. The experience is as much about the sensory aspects as it is about the visual; the distinctive smell of the tannery—familiar to many—adds to the authenticity of the visit, while the vibrant colors of the dyeing vats create a striking visual display. Once you've experienced the sights and smells of the tannery, you can also shop for high-quality leather products, renowned for their superior craftsmanship. The goods available are considered some of the finest in Morocco, providing visitors with a chance to take home exceptional, locally-made leather items.
