A beautiful souk.
I was interested to see how some of the vendors reacted to all the tourists' photos. Some were quite annoyed by it, which I can understand. Imagine earning your money from shops that are beautifully decorated every morning, everyone enjoying taking photos, and hardly anyone buying anything, so you go home with very little money.
Other vendors enjoy being photographed.
My tip: before taking a photo, quickly check to see if there's a sign prohibiting photography or ask if it's okay to take a photo.

Another nice souk within Marrakesh. The souk you are going depends on what goods and services you are looking for. It is not all in one place and the focus differs on the area.
