The El-Harti Gardens (Jardins El-Harti)

Situated in the heart of Gueliz, the El-Harti Gardens have everything to offer.  As one of Marrakech’s larger new gardens, it is possible to find playgrounds for children and sports areas for everyones enjoyment. However, what is perhaps most about El-Harti is the diverse range of plants and flowers it houses; alongside the the rose garden, the plethora of brightly coloured plants, the gigantic palm trees and the dozens of trees of species of trees, there is even a cactus garden hiding within El-Harti’s gates.

As you look along the long 100m long water basin lined with many water fountains, in the distance, standing tall amongst the palm trees, it is possible to see the floodlights of the Stade el-Harti, a multi-use 20,000 seat stadium that is predominantly used for the home games of Kawkab Marrakech football club.This garden is perhaps the perfect place to rest when venturing out of the Medina to visit the new town.
