ABOUT MEDERSA BEN YOUSSEF

The Medersa Ben Youssef, better known as the Koranic School, was built in 1565 under the orders of Sultan Abdellah Al Ghalib, belonging to the Saadian dynasty. The monument has hosted during this period Moroccan students from various formations including theological. La Médersa welcomed more than 900 students, including more than 100 foreigners. Composed of a basin and a prayer room, the school was richly decorated: floral motifs, marble work, cedar decorations, etc. Which it is always possible to admire today. The site was restored during the 1950s but retained all its splendor … It is impossible to forget that the Moroccan sovereigns have made it the most recognized Koranic school in all the Maghreb.

ABOUT MENARA

Located a few kilometers from Marrakech, the menara is the most important olive grove of the city, extending over more than one hundred hectares. In the center of this garden was a pond that collects water from the mountains to irrigate the crops. Next to this water point built in the 12th century is a square-shaped Saadian palace with a triangular roof, the former romantic residence of the sultans during the 19th century. The place is ideal for walks. Coupés of the city and its agitations, the visitors will appreciate coming to recharge in this big corner of greenery.

ABOUT KOUTOUBIA

15 Days Morocco Tours Itineraries

Without a doubt, the most important religious building of Marrakech. Why? First of all locally because Moroccans, very practitioners, turn to her several times a day during the call to prayer. Moreover, for tourists, the Koutoubia is often recommended to locate and orient itself in the city! Built in the 12th century under the orders of Sultan Abdelmoumen (Almoravid dynasty), the Koutoubia -signifying “The Mosque of the booksellers” – bears its name because of its former location was in the souk of the manuscript dealers! The religious building, built in a rather old style, consists of a large courtyard, a prayer room, the qibla wall (indicating the direction of prayer) and the minaret The call to prayer) reaching 77 meters in height! During the hours of prayer, do not be surprised to see the Moroccans suddenly stop their activities in progress to turn to the Koutoubia and practice their religious exercise. Visitors can not access the mosque, reserved for its faithful. Nevertheless, you can approach the latter to admire its Hispano-Moorish architecture.

ABOUT PALAIS OF BAHIA

15 Days Morocco Tours Itineraries

The “Palais de la Bahia” is not a historic high place like the other monuments that populate Marrakech. On the other hand, the site is renowned for the richness of its architecture. Its construction is recent, 19th century, and was inspired by the Arab and Andalusian styles. The foundations of the palace appeared in 1880 under the will of the vizier Sidi Moussa, at the head of the Moroccan kingdom. The latter wanted the construction of a luxurious residence for the pleasure of one of his companions. He then offered a palace of about 160 rooms! This would provide an explanation in the name of the monument meaning “palace of the beautiful” … Around the building, visitors will be able to walk in the courtyards and gardens that distracted its occupants. An anecdote: The construction of the Palais de la Bahia (7 years old) is at the origin of a famous Moroccan expression: “the Bahia is finally finished”, used when a business remains unresolved for a long time!

ABOUT GARDENS OF MAJORELLE

Surely the most beautiful garden of the city! It will seduce lovers of nature and birds of all kinds! The origin of this botanical garden belongs to Jacques Majorelle, a famous French painter of the early 20th century. By discovering Marrakech, the latter fell under the charm of Morocco, its bright colors, Berber architecture, civilization as well as its way of life. He then elected residence in the “Red City” and developed his botanical garden where he lodged exotic plants, basins and ceramic decorations. The garden adopted the color “blue majorelle”, which the artist created to express the depth and intensity of the ocean. The botanical garden is regarded by its creator as his main work, to which he devoted his whole life. It opened its doors to the public in 1947. Nowadays, Majorelle gardens are the property of Pierre Bergé and Yves Saint-Laurent who acquired this piece of paradise to protect it and ensure its perenniality. This oriental garden is to be seen without hesitation to cut itself off from the agitations of the city and enjoy the cooing of the birds and the sparkling water of the fountains ..

ABOUT THE SAADIENS TOMBS

Enter the Saadian tombs and discover a rich history and stunning ornamentation! The foundations of these tombs date back to the 16th century, and the development of this site grew according to the will of Sultan Ahmed al-Mansur Saadi. The site became a royal necropolis in 1557 following the induction of the first Saadian prince. Nevertheless, these monuments were discovered only in the contemporary period, around 1917. They were then attributed to the services of the Fine Arts for their restoration. The mausoleum contains some 60 Saadians, an Arab dynasty that imposed itself in Morocco from 1524 to 1659 and who took care to embellish the site throughout their sovereignty. The monument consists of a chapel and three funeral rooms. The decoration of the three rooms is inspired by the Hispano-Moorish style. In the courtyard of the mausoleum are grouped the tombs of the Saadian soldiers near the garden of the necropolis. Guides are at your disposal for the visit of the tombs, it is however possible to carry out this discovery by oneself.

    We are a family of five and provided a general idea of the route we wanted to take over 8 days, and Walid and his team made it happen. They were very flexible and accommodating. They were also priced fairly, a problem I was running into with other companies. We saw all of Morocco and they took care of us every step of the way. A special shout out to our English speaking driver Ebrahim who treated us like his own family and made the trip extra special. Highly recommend!
