artist Jacques Majorelle, who spent nearly 40 years developing elaborate gardens around his 1930s-era villa-studio. Saved and restored in the 1980s by fashion designer Yves Saint Laurent and partner Pierre Bergé, the gardens feature 400 species of palm trees and 1,800 varieties of cacti.

AS TIME GOES BY...
Enjoy lunch at Rick’s Cafe in Casablanca, a re-creation of the legendary “gin joint” from the movie of the same name. The cafe is housed in a mansion near the medina (old town), and features architectural details you’ll recognize from the original Rick’s in the film... including the great wooden front doors, and of course a piano bar, reminiscent of the one that Sam played at... again and again.
