Marché Africaine
On the far side of the oued is the gargantuan Marché Africaine, a daily market selling all manner of produce, from spices and traditional clothing to huge metal cooking pots, velour carpets and dodgy cologne (Tuareg pour Homme anyone?). To see the market at its liveliest, it's best to come in the morning.
