Bab Lakssour is a prominent drop-off point and gateway within the medina of Marrakesh, marking the transition from the city’s outer thoroughfares into the dense, winding streets of the Mouassine district. While the massive stone gates of the outer city walls, or babs, were once strictly defensive sentinels, Bab Lakssour acts as a vital practical anchor for modern navigation. It serves as a favored entry for travelers and taxis because it offers a direct path into the heart of the ancient city’s vibrant handicraft centers, avoiding the most congested traffic near the central square of Jemaa el-Fna.
