Guigou Sheep Souq

Just over the Guigou River east of the town are the showgrounds that host the livestock market on Sunday mornings. Come early to watch men test-riding donkeys and picking out the best flocks of sheep or goats – or maybe selling a handsome ram or billy goat. Huge trucks overloaded with hay bales complete the scene. Ask before taking photographs.
