Souk al-Attarin

Souks · Mamluk

Cones of sumac, cumin and rose water — the souk you smell before you see.

An attar deals in scent, spice and remedy at once. This is where the sumac that goes on the kaak is bought, and the seven-spice blends, and the orange-blossom water that ends up in the sweets.

Position approximate — a field visit will confirm it.
