El Bahia Palace

An ornate palace complex built in the late 19th century, with courtyards, gardens, richly decorated rooms and traditional Moroccan architectural details. The palace was developed in several stages and expanded by Ba Ahmed, Grand Vizier to Sultan Moulay Abdelaziz. The complex covers about 8 hectares. The main entrance is on Rue Riad Zitoun el Jedid. The palace is relatively close to other attractions in the southern Medina and can be reached on foot from Jemaa el-Fnaa. Arriving shortly after opening can be useful for visitors who want to avoid the busiest periods.
