Small green paradises

The gardens of Marrakech offer a peaceful escape from the city’s lively streets, showcasing the beauty of Moroccan landscape design. Among the most famous is the Majorelle Garden, with its vibrant blue buildings and exotic plant collection, including palms, cacti, and bamboo. Designed by French artist Jacques Majorelle and later restored by Yves Saint Laurent, this garden is a tranquil oasis. The Menara Gardens, with their ancient olive groves and iconic reflective pool, provide stunning views of the Atlas Mountains. Each garden reflects a unique blend of Moroccan and Islamic art, offering visitors a serene environment to enjoy nature’s beauty. These green spaces are cherished gems in Marrakech, embodying both history and natural splendor.
