Travelers‘ Notebook
November through May is the best time to visit the ruins of Sijilmasa. (Flies, sand fleas and daytime temperatures easily topping 120 degrees Fahrenheit make summer touring a lot less enjoyable.) Try to visit on Sundays, Tuesdays or Thursdays, when the adjacent town of Rissani holds its large and lively souk (market).
