Le Jardin Secret

Hidden behind the walls of the medina, Le Jardin Secret restores a 19th-century palace with two gardens: an Islamic one with water channels and perfect symmetry, and an exotic one featuring plants from five continents. It is an oasis of calm amidst the bustle of the souks, where the ingenious hydraulic system of the khettaras is explained. It is well worth climbing the tower to see the rooftops of the medina, and taking a break in its café surrounded by greenery. 📷 Photographs courtesy of ELMOUJDI (CC BY-SA 4.0) and muffinn (CC BY 2.0), via Wikimedia Commons.
