The Majorelle Garden was first created by the French painter Jacques Majorelle in 1923. He had built a villa for himself there and expanded his property buying further parcels of land crowded with the painter's botanical collection from all over the world. After the death of Majorelle , the garden was neglected and abandoned until it was discovered by Yves Saint Laurent and Pierre Bergé who had restored the house, enriched the botanical garden and brought them to their former glory. The villa Studio is now home to a Berber Culture Museam which contains the best of YSL personal collection of Berber items like authentic hand made silver jewelry , antique ceramic, rugs and other pieces of art.

The Koutoubia Minaret is the most famous landmark of Marrakech. It is attached to the Koutoubia mosque which is built in the late 12th century . It's not particularly very high but it towers over the Medina of Marrakech thanks to a long- standing law that forbids any other buildings in the city to rise above the Koutoubia.

The Mellah of Marrakech was created by decree of the Sultan Abdallah al-Ghalib of the Saadian dynasty in 1558, outside of the walls of El Badi Palace. During the 16th and 17th centuries, the Mellah was one of the main commercial areas of Marrakech old Medina. It was inhabited in the past by Jews who are expelled from the Iberian peninsula after the reconquista.
