Spending a few hours in a tropical paradise in a busy city…

A peaceful space in a busy city...

A peaceful space in a busy city…

Hidden amongst the dusty and busy roads of Marrakech is a little slice of paradise, the perfect escape from the bustling souks and kasbah. The Majorelle Gardens, also known as the YSL Gardens, is a colourful and cheerful space which manages to combine a sense of calm with pops of vibrant colour, a place for reflection yet also inspiration and a serenity amongst the hustle and bustle of this major Moroccan City. These botanical gardens are unique, especially in Marrakech where everything is so fast-paced and a little hectic at times, but they also combine nature and art and you can see why YSL chose to have his final resting place in this exquisite spot. There is an homage to the great designer with a collection of his works of art – fun, pop-art style posters with the central theme of love. Take your loved ones for a memorable stroll in this sublime space and absorb it’s essence and beauty as you take a deep breath and appreciate all the wonderful things in your life.
