A street worth walking twice · Marrakech, Morocco
The dyers' street, reached through an arched portal beside the historic Mouassine fountain, where dyed wool, skins and silk are hung on poles above the lane to dry. Dyers have worked here for well over a century over cauldron-sized vats, drawing pigment from woad, indigo, saffron, cochineal and sandalwood, and the process is still manual and organic from start to finish. It is one of the trade streets that gave the souks their old order, sitting between Jemaa el-Fna and the Ben Youssef mosque a couple of minutes from the Mouassine mosque.
A street roofed in wet colour, with the men who put it there still working underneath.
