The Menara was built in the twelfth century at the time of the Almohads, by the caliph Abdul-Mu’min. It is an excellent garden planted with 40 varieties of olive trees around a colossal basin that serves as a reservoir, fed for more than 700 years, by driving about thirty kilometers from the mountains. The Menara opens its main alley in a spectacular alignment with the Koutoubia minaret. This park, royally drawn, serves as a privileged place to walk for locals and travelers. Majorel Gardens & Berber art museum: These gardens derive their name from their creator, the painter Jacques Majorelle and were created in 1920 and bought back in 1966, by Pierre Bergé and Yves Saint-Laurent. The garden today exhibits plants of all kinds from around the world, pools filled with water lilies and lotus, bright colors dominated by intense blue (majorelle blue). In the heart of the Majorelle garden, there is a museum of Berber art which presents exclusively a collection of objects from various regions of Morocco. The Majorelle garden is the ideal and almost unmissable place to take beautiful souvenir photos.
Even if the area is extremely wide, you will be able to see its highlights through the eyes of a knowledgeable guide. The main highlights of the city tour are:
– The koutoubia Mosque
