The potters' and zellige-makers' district on the medina outskirts.

Selected local business

About

The Aïn Nokbi district, a few kilometres from the Fez medina, gathers most traditional pottery and zellige workshops. A workshop visit shows the full chain: potter's wheel, wood-fired kiln, hand-cutting of zellige tesserae, reverse assembly. Most workshops welcome visitors with no obligation to buy; some sell to the public at fair prices.

Why it is listed

  • ◆See a still-living craft in action.
  • ◆Workshop prices are more honest than in the medina.
  • ◆No middleman, direct contact with master artisans.

Traveller tips

  • ◆Take a taxi (15 min from the medina) — no convenient public transport.
  • ◆Ask to see the zellige cutting, it's the most fascinating step.
  • ◆Shipping is possible but expensive for larger pieces.
