We start our day by visiting this Botanical garden and artist's landscape garden in Marrakech, It was created by the French Orientalist artist, Jacques Majorelle over almost forty years, starting in 1923, and features a Cubist villa designed by the French architect, Paul Sinoir in the 1930s. There is also the new museum of Yves Saint Laurent around the corner, a very well-curated museum and an opportunity to see YSL's brilliance and attention to detail up close. And the gift shop has a great selection of items at all price points. Together with Jardin Majorelle, It is a perfect highlight of Marrakech.
Right after we leave the gardens we drive you across Gueliz, the ''Nouvelle Ville'' and the heart of the modern part of Marrakech. Its main avenues are Mohammed VI and Mohammed V. Avenue Mohammed V is the one connects the Old Medina of Marrakech with the Modern town which is Gueliz itself. This area is where many foreigners choose to live in Marrakech, the wide, French-era streets of Gueliz are home to upscale Moroccan and European restaurants, cabarets and chic bars, as well as art galleries and mainstream fashion stores.

Next stop, the Bahia or the (The Beautiful) is an 8000-sq-metre, floor-to-ceiling extravagance of intricate marquetry, plasterwork and zouak (painted wood), and certainly one of Marrakesh's most eye-popping sights.
