Guelmim

Guelmim (Arabic: كلميم‎,مدينة كلميم also spelt Goulimine or Guelmin)

It is the capital of the Guelmim-Es Semara region which includes southern Morocco (south of the Souss-Massa-Dra region) and northern Western Sahara. The population of the city is 95,599 (2004census), making it the largest city in the region.

In the past Goulemin was famous for his big camel market and in the 1970s Hippies were sold on the variety of "prehistoric" beads (ancient embossed silver, stone, fossil coral ("couscous") and bone) mainly from Tisnit and Mauretania. Some peculiar colourful ones, labeled as "Goulemine beads", has been manufactured in fact in Venice for the South-Moroccan market.
