About this experience
- Your ticket to El Badi Palace puts you inside a 16th-century royal complex that guests at its opening reportedly called the Eighth Wonder of the World, now a vast ruin of sunken gardens, towering walls, and nesting storks.
- The main courtyard runs 135 metres by 110 metres, with four sunken gardens and a central reflecting pool stretching 90 metres, giving you a direct sense of the scale Sultan Ahmad al-Mansur built to intimidate foreign dignitaries.
- Climb to the terraces for views across the ruins to the Koutoubia Mosque minaret, then head underground into the former storage chambers and passageways that run beneath the complex.
- The site also houses the 12th-century Koutoubia minbar, a cedarwood pulpit made by artisans in Cordoba in 1137 and considered one of the finest surviving examples of Islamic woodwork.
- Before you leave, choose a photo from your visit and have it made into a personalized postcard, mailed worldwide from the site, with a digital copy sent to you as well.
