Morocco / Marrakesh / The City

An oasis on the frontiers of the desert, a jewel at the foot of the Atlas mountains, Marrakesh is the dazzling and superb capital of Southern Morocco where everything is worth seeing : the cold, impersonal beauty of the Saadians tombs, the Ben Youssef medersa and the majestic ruins of the Badii palace, built by Ahmed el Mansour using the most precious materials; gold, onyx and italian marble, all traded for their weight in sugar.

A visit to the gardens provides a wonderful opportunity of riding through Marrakesh in a horse-drawn carriage. The villa Majorelle gardens, the Palmeraie (Plam Grove) with its 13,000 hectares of palm, orange, olive and apple trees.
