21 Of The Most Beautiful Botanical Gardens In The World
Jardin Majorelle, Morocco: Another famous garden associated with an artist is Jardin Majorelle in Marrakech. Created by Jacques Majorelle, a French painter, the garden took almost 40 years to complete. Spread over 9,000 m², this tropical garden has both Art Deco and Moorish influences. By 1980, the gardens and villa were in need of renovation and French fashion designers Yves Saint-Laurent and Pierre Bergé purchased it. This botanical garden has a vibrant blue villa designed by Paul Sinoir in the Cubist style. If you visit from Monday to Friday, you can also see the Villa Oasis garden, which was the private garden of Saint-Laurent and Bergé.
