This mosque is in the centre of Agadir, not far from the beach. It is a large mosque which was inaugurated in September 1969 by King Hassan II. Ten years before, the whole city of Agadir had been destroyed by a great earthquake, and nothing was left. It was therefore decided to convert the place into a place of tourist holiday, but also there remained only the population of the old village which had not died in the earthquake, and the faithful needed a mosque. Regrettably, if you are not a Muslim, you cannot enter the mosque. They are usually wonderful inside, with decorations on the walls and ceilings, but you can only admire it from the outside.

The municipal market of Agadir is called "Souk El Had" in Arabic and is far from the tourist area of ​​the beach and hotels (for our greatest pleasure!). It is not in the centre of Agadir for the simple and unique reason that there is no historic centre, the city was completely destroyed by an earthquake in the 1960s and the centre has no been rebuilt. The souk is therefore on the border of the city, it took us 30 minutes on foot to get there from the coast. It's a huge market where you can really find everything, including handicrafts made in Agadir, in the Atlas or even in the Sahara (spices, clothes, carpets, etc.). You absolutely have to go there if you ever visit Agadir.
