Lonely Planet review for Wikala of Al-Ghouri

Part of the Al-Ghouri complex, the Wikala of Al-Ghouri, is one of the doomed Qansuh al-Ghouri's, the penultimate Mamluk sultan, legacies. The upper rooms of this restored wikala (merchants' inn) are artists' ateliers while the former stables are craft shops. The courtyard serves as a theatre for Sufi dance performances.
