The gardens of Marrakech

Visit the different gardens of Marrakech: the Agdal garden, the Majorelle garden, the Koutoubia gardens and other secret gardens of the Ochre city will be proposed to you

The Secret Garden

Located in the heart of the Mellah (the Jewish quarter of the Medina) on Mouassine Street. It is composed of two magnificent gardens, dominated by a tower that offers a breathtaking view of the city. I recommend this quiet and restful visit while enjoying the terrace overlooking the Islamic garden

The Majorelle Garden

Located in the Guéliz districts, very close to the Riad. Yves Saint Laurent bought the extraordinary garden created by Majorelle, with this beautiful blue. This visit is a wonderful moment of grace and freshness! You will also find the Berber museum which exhibits ornaments, jewellery and costumes that trace the heritage of Berber culture.

The Gardens of Agdal

Located south of the Royal Palace. The Menara is the most important olive grove in the city and the Agdal gardens are the oldest and largest in Marrakech. It is a real oasis of freshness with a magical charm to discover as a couple, with friends or with the family.

The Palaces of Marrakech

Admire the incredible palaces and monuments such as the Bahia Palace, the El Badi Palace, the Koutoubia Tower and the Saadian Tombs

The Bahia Palace

Located on the edge of the Mellah, it will amaze you with its perfumed gardens, its sculpted doors, its superbly decorated courtyards and its Riad. It is best to visit in the afternoon, as the morning is full of tourist buses.

El Badi Palace

Located in the Mellah districts and was built at the end of the 16th century. It was inspired by the Alhambra Palace in Granada, Spain, particularly its courtyard with a large pool. On its ramparts live storks.

The Saadian Tombs

They are located very close to the Kasbah Mosque. The royal tombs in this mausoleum are a unique example of Hispano-Moorish decorative art
