About Majorelle Garden

Jardin Majorelle is a 9,000-square-metre botanical and artist's garden in Marrakech created by the French painter Jacques Majorelle. The official garden history says he began planting exotic specimens in 1922 and developed the property over roughly forty years as both a sanctuary and a botanical laboratory. The enclosed design combines paths on different levels with strongly coloured buildings influenced by Art Deco and Moorish architecture. The intense blue used throughout is now inseparable from the garden's identity. Daily 08:00–18:30; last entry 18:00. Open every day, including public holidays; no regular closure day. Admission requires an online ticket.

What's inside

The garden route is a labyrinth of crossing alleys, level changes, dense planting, water, pots and boldly coloured architecture rather than a single straight promenade. Jacques Majorelle collected plants from many parts of the world, using the grounds as a living botanical experiment. The site also identifies the Pierre Bergé Museum of Berber Arts, Café Majorelle and a boutique as distinct visitor facilities. Follow the booked route and signs rather than treating every visible doorway as open access. Open every day, including public holidays; no regular closure day. Admission requires an online ticket.

How long to spend

Time depends on the density of the timed entry, interest in the planting and whether a separately scheduled museum or private-garden element is included. Reserve the exact entry time in advance, arrive with enough margin to present the QR code and avoid placing a fixed departure immediately after the visit. The garden's compact area does not make its narrow, frequently photographed paths quick to move through. General admission: 170 MAD (Dhs). Tickets are sold online only through the official ticketing website. Reduced and complimentary categories require the applicable proof of eligibility.

Photography

Jardin Majorelle's strongest compositions use the contrast between saturated blue architecture, terracotta pots, water and layered green planting. The crossing alleys and changes in level produce framed views rather than one dominant panorama, while the former artist's studio gives the colour scheme an architectural centre. The official visitor page does not record a policy for personal photography, tripods, drones, portrait sessions or commercial production. Do not infer permission from photographs published online. The final admission is at 18:00, thirty minutes before the garden closes. Children under 10 enter free when accompanied by an adult; unaccompanied children are not admitted.
