Moroccan markets

The sights, smells and unique atmosphere make the souk my favorite place in the world. The smell of spices and new cooked bread, the feel of the heat, the shouts of the stallholders and the bright colors of different vegetables. prepare for all your senses to be overwhelmed at once as you enter the souk is just more alive and an excellent place to get more relaxed even if you aren’t intending to shop, but who goes to the souks without coming back with something you can’t resist it. there you will find the fresh fish ,the seasonal vegetables and the boneless meat the souk was and always the heat of every Moroccan city just enjoy it as we do
The most famous Moroccan markets and souks is Marrakech souks Many travelers will be staying in, or at least passing through, Marrakech which has a host of excellent souks to explore. Packed the rafters with goods and people, they might feel a bit overwhelming at first, but if you dive in and let the atmosphere, sights, smells, and sounds, wash over you for a moment, you will be transported to another world. There are many different souks in Marrakech all in the same area and they are roughly divided by what they sell, although to a first-time visitor they might all seem to blend into one.
Another famous one is Souk el Attarine, Fez I love it teeming with living history – it is perhaps one of the best examples of medieval civilization left, with its trades and crafts having barely changed for a millennium. In the shops at the Souk el Attarine, you will find all sorts of wonderful goods for sale, including spices, herbs, incense, and traditional Moroccan crafts.
Finally, Essaouira Fish Market (which is my birthplace) also known as Mogador It’s an 18th-century European fortified seaport and the original architecture and layout are incredibly well-preserved. The souks fill the lanes of the town, but for something different to the usual slippers and woven throws, head down to the famous fish market there and try the freshest catch of the day
Since you head to souk I give some guides
NAVIGATING THE SOUKS
Most souks have many alleys and they are built in very complicated way the best way to find your way is just to ask someone, and people will be more than happy to help, If you are woman it is best to ask another woman. another option is buying a map, but most souk maps are not that good or you will find one ,on the other hand Using you phone GPS is great idea but you don’t stick your head to your phone missing the whole experience .
HAGGLING AND BARGAINING
Bargain in souk is something to expect you’ll notice the deeper you go into the souks, the cheaper it gets. Avoid asking for prices if you do so, as asking for prices implies, you’re keen to buy. Then if you don’t, you may find the shopkeepers making rude remarks.
If you already know what you need, ask the locals at your Riad or hotel what to expect to pay. They will be glad to help! If you find something you need to buy, it’s time to haggle/bargain!Haggling is almost a tradition in Morocco For many, it’s even fun!

There is more to tell about the big Moroccan souks, and there are too many of them to cover in brief paragraph


please feel free to change my sentence as you like if you find that they are off and even change the meaning if necessary i also have problems with punctuation i hope you will enjoy my writing they come from my heart

Corrections

The sights, smells and unique atmosphere make the souk my favorite place in the world.

The smell of spices and newof freshly cooked bread, the feel of the heat, the shouts of the stallholders, and the bright colors of the different vegetables.

I'm not sure what "feel of the heat" means... or where the heat is coming from...

pPrepare for all of your senses to be overwhelmed at once as you enter t. The souk is just more alive, and it is an excellent place to get more relaxed even if you aren’t intending to shop, but whohardly anyone goes to the souks without coming back withbringing something back--you can’t resist it.

Ok, this sentence has a few problems. Stylistically, you keep promising us one thing (senses overwhelmed) and offering us contradictions (alive, relaxed) without resolving them with details and reasons. Evocative, but a bit empty. Also, ruuuuuuun-on! (Don't get me wrong, also fun to read)

tThere you will find the fresh fish ,the, seasonal vegetables, and the boneless meat. tThe souk was and always will be the heart of every Moroccan city --just enjoy it as we do.

Feed me! Details!

The most famous Moroccan markets and souks isare Marrakech souks. Many travelers will be staying in, (or at least passing through,) Marrakech, which has a host of excellent souks to explore.

Ok, I waffled a lot on that last , I added--but you need something to break up these enormous sentences, pal.

Packed to the rafters with goods and people, they might feel a bit overwhelming at first, but if you dive in and let the atmosphere, sights, smells, and sounds, wash over you for a moment, you will be transported to another world.

Break it up!

Bargaining in sSouks is something to expect y. You’ll notice the deeper you go into the souks, the cheaper it gets.

I think you might do well to write Souks throughout in uppercase, as you are referring to a distinct type of open-air market.

Avoid asking for prices i. If you do so, as asking for prices it implies, you’re keen to buy.

ThenHowever if you don’t, you may find the shopkeepers making rude remarks.

Feedback

Yes! I had fun. I could tell you had fun writing this. Keep it up, add some concrete sensory details (specific spice names and fish you can only find there--feel free to use a transliteration of their names and one or two evocative adjectives for how things smell, how busy it is). And go back through and separate out your sentences, Mister/Madam!
