Please note that entrance inside the mosque is not allowed .

Our journey continues to a traditional Argan oil cooperative, where you’ll have the chance to discover the secrets of Morocco’s “liquid gold.” Witness local Berber women demonstrating traditional methods of extracting this precious oil, passed down through generations. Learn about the numerous health and beauty benefits of Argan oil, from nourishing skin and hair to its use in Moroccan cuisine. You’ll also have the opportunity to purchase authentic, high-quality Argan products directly from the cooperative—an ideal way to support the local community and take home a meaningful souvenir.
