There is also the other side of the city’s modern image. Because beyond that, traditional lifestyle lies current, manicured areas, funky cafes, chic shopping centers, and museums are architectural statements. If that sounds like your idea of a city break, make for the district of Gueliz City Centre and check out the 10 top things to do and see in Gueliz Marrakech in our must-experience list highlight. Things to Do and to see in Gueliz Marrakech:

The Majorelle Gardens (Les Jardins de Majorelle)

One of Morocco’s best popular, known and loved places, The Majorelle Gardens was created by French painter Jacques Majorelle, who spent 40 years injecting his passion and creativity into this magical garden. With more than 300 species of stunning plants and some tranquil streams, this is the best place to visit when you need a break from the busy city. And if you happen to love Art Deco and Moorish stylistic features, you’ve found the right place in this quiet and relaxing spot.

El Harti Park (Jardins Jnane El Harti)

Parc El Harti has become a haven, away from the city noise & traffic. Immersed in beautiful exotic flowers and shaded by majestic trees, this is the best place to have a break, relax and listen to birdsong.

Royal Tennis Club of Marrakech

This is the right place to visit Marrakech for visitors who love sports attractions, especially tennis. In Gueliz, you’ll find the Royal Tennis Club of Marrakech, with its nine courts (plus a stadium court), considered the oldest and largest tennis club in Marrakech.

Arsat Moulay Abdeslam Cyber Park

In olden times, an endless water supply feeding into this stunning park was earmarked for development as a food processing district transformed into an admired botanical garden during the French occupation. The historic garden is a welcoming space where visitors can sit and enjoy the lush trees, beautiful fountains, and the enthralling rose garden, creating a tranquil environment next to the chaotic congested Medina.

The Royal Theatre

The Royal Theatre in Marrakech was begun in the 1970s by celebrated Tunisian architect Charles Boccara, inspired by Roman art, who added fancy architectural flourishes such as an imposing cupola and columns. 1200 seater amphitheater remains a cultural hub in Marrakech, hosting al fresco concerts, ballets and shows annually.
