The Small Souk

The Petit Souk, also known as Zoco Chico or Souk Esseghir, is a historic rectangular plaza at the heart of Larache's medina. Characterized by its elegant porticoes and white-and-blue arcades, it serves as a bridge between the city's Moroccan heritage and its colonial past. The square is a bustling center for traditional markets and social life, anchored by the presence of the Great Mosque.
