Tarudant was invisible to the 16th century, and then Saadi you made it the capital, which he has been for 20 years. At the same time, the main part of the old city and its fortress were built. All other buildings preserved to our times were erected in the 18th century. Later, when the capital returned to Marrakech, the city remained as popular, since it organized the production of sugarcane, rice and cotton — goods that in those days had special popularity.
