Sa’adian Tombs
recommended by
Sue Dobson
In the Sa’adian Tombs complex, Marrakech's richly decorated royal mausoleums dating from the 16th century are surrounded by gardens and sun-snoozing cats. Admire the domed ceilings, ornate plasterwork, marble pillars and intricate carvings in the mausoleum rooms. It’s one of the most visited sites in Morocco.
From the Djemaa el Fna, follow Rue Bab Agnaou south outside the ramparts. At the end is a small square flanked by two gates; through the gate on the left (Bab Agnaou, from Almohad times) is the kasbah mosque. The narrow passageway to the Sa'adian tombs is well-signposted at the right-hand corner of the mosque.
Rue de la Kasbah. Usual opening hours 8.30 to 11.45 am and 2.30 to 5.30 pm. Closed Tuesday.
Admission: 10 DHS
Cost adult ticket: £1 - £5 pp
