Exploring the French Quarter & Jardin Majorelle, Marrakech

Post by bdjakaria76 »

Wednesday was our last full day in Marrakech and the whatsapp number list weather was looking to be great, so we decided it would be the perfect time to visit the Majorelle Gardens and explore the surrounding French Quarter of the city. Other than seeing the Atlas Mountains, the other thing top of the Marrakech checklist for me was the gardens. I’ve seen so many images of them online and they looked so tranquil and beautiful I just had to visit.

Travel to the French Quarter

Luckily, when we woke up the weather was just as fantastic as predicted, a little too fantastic in fact! It was so warm that we decided to forgo the walk across town and jump in a cheap cab. We wanted to use our energy for enjoying the gardens and the French Quarter, not getting lost again in the city!

Les Jardins Majorelle

The Majorelle gardens have a fascinating history behind them. They were once the home of artist Jacques Majorelle, who commissioned the build of the house. He planted the gardens, exploring his hobby of botany. Yves Saint Laurent discovered the gardens in 1966, and eventually bought them in 1980, restoring and maintaining them.
