A living masterpiece of color and nature

Wander through a one-hectare botanical wonder where over 300 plant species from five continents: towering cacti, bamboo, jasmine, and bougainvillea, thrive in perfect harmony. Designed by painter Jacques Majorelle, the garden feels like stepping into a living canvas where art and nature coexist beautifully.

The iconic Majorelle Blue villa

Admire the cobalt-blue Art Deco villa, once Majorelle’s studio, now one of Marrakech’s most photographed landmarks. Its vivid hues and geometric lines create a striking contrast against the lush greenery surrounding it.

An immersive palette of design and calm

Every path, pergola, and pot radiates with the famous “Majorelle Blue,” balanced by lemon-yellow and terracotta tones. Pause beside tranquil lily ponds or shaded fountains—the soothing sound of water contrasts the lively rhythm of Marrakech just beyond the garden walls.

Café and boutique retreats

Take a break at Café Bousafsaf, surrounded by bamboo and bougainvillea, where Moroccan mint tea and pastries offer the perfect pause. Browse the Majorelle Boutique for handcrafted items inspired by Yves Saint Laurent’s favorite motifs: geometric Amazigh patterns, florals, and serpents.

The Yves Saint Laurent memorial

End your visit at the serene memorial dedicated to Yves Saint Laurent: a simple white column framed by palms, honoring the designer and Pierre Bergé for restoring and preserving this enchanting garden in the 1980s.

Things to know before booking your tickets

  • Tickets for Jardin Majorelle are sold exclusively online, and you’ll need to book at least 24 hours before your visit. There’s no ticket counter at the garden, and walk-ins aren’t accepted. This system helps control visitor numbers, so booking early ensures your preferred time slot, especially during weekends and holidays.
  • Marrakech doesn’t have reliable public transport, and taxis can be inconsistent with pricing and availability. Booking a ticket that includes private round-trip transfers is the easiest and most comfortable option. You’ll be picked up from your hotel (or the nearest meeting point if you’re staying outside the city) and dropped off after your visit, saving you the effort of negotiating or navigating unfamiliar streets.
  • While the garden has informative signage, joining a guided tour is the best way to uncover its history, design influences, and Yves Saint Laurent’s connection to the space. A professional multilingual guide (English, French, Italian, or Spanish) brings the garden’s stories and symbolism to life.
  • The Berber Museum , located inside the iconic blue villa, requires a separate ticket from the garden. It’s a fascinating addition, showcasing over 600 Amazigh artifacts that capture Morocco’s cultural essence. You can also add entry to the Yves Saint Laurent Museum , located right next to the garden, for a complete experience that ties together art, fashion, and heritage. While tickets can be purchased on-site, it’s best to book a combo online in advance to secure your preferred time slot, avoid long queues, and enjoy a smoother, better-organized visit.
  • If you want to see more of the city in one go, choose a guided full-day Marrakech city tour that includes Jardin Majorelle along with Koutoubia Mosque, Bahia Palace, and Ben Youssef Madrasa. There are two options available:
    • With tickets included: Go for this option if you prefer everything sorted in advance. All entry fees are covered before your tour begins, so you can just enjoy your day without worrying about paying at each site or waiting in lines.
    • Without tickets included: This one’s perfect if you’d rather spread out your costs or keep things flexible. You’ll pay for each site as you go, and your guide will handle all the purchases and skip-the-line access, so you still get convenience without paying for everything upfront.

Majorelle Blue Villa

Right at the heart of the garden stands the famous cobalt-blue Art Deco villa, once the studio of French painter Jacques Majorelle. He designed every detail himself, from the vivid blue walls to the clean geometric lines that contrast beautifully with the greenery. The color, now known worldwide as Majorelle Blue, became an icon of Marrakech. The villa captures Majorelle’s love for Moroccan light, art, and architecture, and remains a true symbol of the city’s creative spirit.

Over 600 artifacts are displayed here, from ornate silver jewelry glittering in mirrored chambers to richly colored textiles, musical instruments, and ceremonial robes. Each piece tells a story from the Atlas Mountains to the Sahara, offering a deeper look at the heritage that inspired Yves Saint Laurent and Pierre Bergé’s devotion to Morocco.

Exotic plant collection

Stretching across one hectare, the garden is home to over 300 plant species gathered from five continents. Shaded bamboo groves, soaring palms, flowering bougainvillea, and sculptural cacti are arranged in careful harmony. Every path and planting was designed by Majorelle himself, creating a garden that feels both wild and intentional. As the light shifts through the day, the colors, shadows, and reflections transform, turning the space into a living artwork that blends creative vision with botanical precision.

Water features and lily ponds

As you wander, you’ll notice fountains and pools tucked between the greenery. The sound of trickling water, the reflections of lilies, and the shade of palms create a rare sense of calm, especially compared to the busy medina outside. These water features not only cool the air but also embody the balance between art and nature that defines the garden’s design philosophy.
