Visiting Surrounding Of Marrakech

Visit of the the ochre pavilion in front of the Grand Atlas Mountains – this panorama of the Menara Gardens is one of the most popular motifs on post cards from Marrakech. A favorite spot of the local population, the public park is just the right place to take a time-out close to the center of the city.

The Jardin de la Ménara was created in the middle of the 12th century during the rule of the Almohad dynasty. The Agdal Gardens in Rabat, Ceuta, or Sevilla have been modeled after it. Agdal Gardens are laid out around a central water basin that is fed by aqueducts, rain water or ground water and irrigates the surrounding vegetation.
