Majorelle Garden
Majorelle Garden Review
The Jardin Majorelle was created by the French painter Louis Majorelle, who lived in Marrakesh between 1922 and 1962. It then passed into the hands of another Marrakesh lover, the late fashion designer Yves Saint Laurent. If you've just come from the desert, it's a sight for sore eyes, with green-bamboo thickets, little streams, and an electric blue gazebo. There's also a villa housing a small Islamic art museum with regular exhibitions, a nice museum shop, and a delightful café.
