It’s rare that I publish a blog post so light on content, but
Marrakech was so beautiful I feel it’s one of those places where the photos should do all the talking. So, in a very unusual style, here is a little ‘Postcards from Marrakech’ post with a few pretty photos from this stunning Moroccan city and the most instagrammable places in the city.
Jardin Majorelle
Jardin Majorelle is the botanical garden and Cubist-style villa owned by Yves Saint-Laurent from 1980-2008. His ashes are scattered in the garden, so the gardens are a must-visit for any fashion-lover.
The Medina
Marrakech’s Medina is the walled old city. Filled with the souks, wooden doorways, and narrow passageways and roads for wandering aimlessly and getting lost amongst the history and pink and ochre walls.
Bahia Palace
Just a short walk from our hotel,
La Sultana, is the Bahia
Palace. It’s very cheap to enter and well worth the small cost! The palace is filled with intricate woodwork, colourful tiles, and courtyards filled with fountains and foliage.
