THE SHORTLIST

A few places worth your time.

01Culture · DAY 1 IDEA

Southern medina

Bahia Palace

Bahia’s courtyards and decorative detail reward a slower pace than a room-by-room dash. Look at how thresholds and enclosed spaces organize the palace, and verify the areas currently open before making this the anchor of your morning.

02Neighborhoods · DAY 1 IDEA

Medina entrance

Jemaa el-Fna

The square is a place of commerce, performance and meeting, with cultural traditions recognized by UNESCO. Spend time observing rather than collecting photographs, agree any service or photography charge beforehand, and keep a clear route back to your accommodation.

03Outdoors · DAY 2 IDEA

Rue Yves Saint Laurent

Jardin Majorelle

The garden’s blue architecture and dense planting create a deliberately different mood from the medina. Reserve a suitable entry slot through official channels, pause over the plants as well as the color, and check separate museum admission arrangements.

A note before you go. Keep Bahia and Jemaa el-Fna on the same medina day. Book Majorelle through its official channels, check entry details, and leave room between reserved visits.
