Tiznit City Walls

Built in 1886 by Sultan Hassan I, the 5km of plaster walls signify the inauguration of Tiznit as an official city. It’s possible to climb onto sections of the walls, which have some 30 towers and nine gates. On the northern side of the medina, Bab Targua overlooks a palmeraie (palm grove) with a natural spring, used as a laundry by local women.
