Shopping at Morocco



There are numerous places to visit in Morocco, including great shopping places where you can get amazing discounts and bargains. The Souqs of Morocco are well-known for their arts and crafts, especially for leather goods. You can buy yourself a pair of authentic leather sandals or slippers that you will probably never get to wear, but these slippers will make a great talking point! But at these Souqs, you need to bargain hard to get your goods at reasonable prices. Actually you should be looking to get some reduction in the price, by asking a discount at least between 30 to 50%.

You will be able to find out, when you are not being realistic with your bargain as the vendor will generally withdraw from your deals. You need to keep in mind that the goods are only worthy, for what you are prepared to shell out and you shouldn't be bargain for something that you really don't want.

At most of these shops you can get slippers and shoes made from local leather, a range of handicrafts and iron lamps works which are the most noteworthy. You can also find some beautiful lamps made from stretched textile and leather, which is painted beautifully with different kinds of patterns and designs. If you want to purchase the best goods at the best price, then you need to have good bargaining skills!

Morocco is also known for its attractive carpets which are hand woven very beautifully and they are famous across the globe! So if you're planning to buy a carpet, make sure you buy one according to its size, as you need to carry it back home! You can also get lovely terracotta in Souq areas and at the main markets. These potteries come in all kinds of sizes and shapes. You will be able to find them all across the Morocco. Again the problem with these potteries is that, it will be difficult to carry them back to your country. So make sure you pack it neatly and carefully, they make a lovely souvenir. If you have love for silver jewelery, then at Morocco you can find decorative and amazingly crafted bangles, bracelets, necklaces and rings. These silver jeweleries make nice gifts when you bring them back to your home. Basically they are cheap to buy, but it depends upon how you bargain. Don't forget to carry a camera to take memorable photos of your shopping experience!

www.made-from-india.com - Many people are of the opinion that textiles industry products are limited to the clothing they wear, but this is misconception. Take a look inside the air filters used in factories. These machines use fine textile made of satin to trap fine particles of soot & dust so that they cannot escape and pollute the environment. There are many textile manufacturing plants all over India, especially in Gujarat which cater to the requirements of the entire nation and a good volume of their products are exported too.
