The experience
Eight hectares of walled garden on Avenue Mohammed V, created in the 18th century when Sultan Sidi Mohammed Ben Abdallah gave it to his son, Prince Moulay Abdeslam, as a wedding present. The Mohammed VI Foundation for Environmental Protection restored it from 2005 with Maroc Telecom and fourteen IT companies, adding eleven interactive kiosks, a telecoms museum and fibre wifi across the whole park — Morocco's first 'cyber park'. The planting inventory is dominated by more than 1,100 oleanders, plus 535 Phoenix palms, 500 bitter oranges and 459 olive trees. Entry is free and it sits a five-minute walk from the Koutoubia.
The only genuinely shaded, genuinely free green walk inside the walls — and the wifi is faster than your riad's.
