Sometimes shortened to “Chaouen” or “Xaouen,” the name derives from the Rifi word for “antlers” or “horns,” an allusion to the peaks that crown the region, often snowcapped in winter. The narrow blue passages give way to wide squares where the historic Andalusian influence on the town is easily notable in ornate archways, doorways (the most famous of which is a ruin at the entrance of town), windows, and the sprawl of red-tiled rooftops. This is the place to head for that photo op to make all the friends back home envious.
