When visiting the Majorelle Garden, make sure not to miss petite well curated Islamic Art Museum of Marrakech, which is located on the garden’s grounds. The collection includes Northern African textiles, traditional killims (carpets) of Arabic and Berber design, pottery, jewelry, ceramics, furniture, paintings and two large doors from Yves Saint-Laurent’s personal collection.
The souks are the traditional markets of central Marrakech where a dizzying number of shops and stalls sell everything from shoes to handbags and lanterns to nuts. You can enter the souks right off Jemaa el-Fna Square and they are a definite must-visit for visitors to Marrakech whether you plan to actually shop or just take in the exotic sights.
