Very atmospheric! But I do not advise going there alone — all sellers will be yours, and discounts will be unyielding (only if they do not like you, of course), and some even climb straight up, so go with someone, it will not be so scary. There are a lot of spices (but I was more impressed by the bazaar in Istanbul). Leaving the bazaar, you can go to the dock and for 2 dirhams sail an old boat to the other shore.

A colorful market, especially if you walk on your own from the subway. The prices are cosmic, but it's nice to take a walk. Especially to bargain and have a heart-to-heart conversation with the sellers. I like that you can walk anywhere, safely

Just walk around and look around - yes, buy something - no way.
The prices here are very specific, designed for a fool. They tried to sell 1 gram of spices for 2 dirhams, and now imagine how much a kilogram costs... Exactly the same spices in Day to Day cost ~ 20 dirhams per kilogram.
In the market (and not only in this one), everyone attacks you like a vulture and tries to sell their goods for overprice.
The only plus, if you are hungry, is that you can go to the market and eat the dates that they offer to try.
