And to an enchanting garden, the work of a lifetime. An oasis of rare essences, saved in 1981 from the real estate greed of Pierre Berg\u00e9 and Yves Saint-Laurent. To fulfil a painter's dream.<\/p>\n<p>The first time you enter this enclosed garden, in the image of Islamic gardens, you are surprised by the atmosphere of serenity and peace that pervades the place. Far removed from the hustle and bustle and bright lights of the ochre city. Only the rustle of a fountain or the song of a bird escapes from this mosaic garden, which Majorelle was to magnify by painting it like a canvas. Pergolas, fountains, jars, borders of paths and ponds, the walls of the villa-workshop: cobalt blue underlines these immobile outlines against which the green tones of the species and flowers from the five continents come to life.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_807\" style=\"width: 820px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/universvoyage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Photo-2_Majorelle_087-Copier.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-0\" data-rl_title=\"La villa vue du jardin de cact\u00e9es.\" data-rl_caption=\"La villa vue du jardin de cact\u00e9es.\" title=\"The villa seen from the cactus garden.\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-807\" class=\"size-large wp-image-807\" src=\"http:\/\/universvoyage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Photo-2_Majorelle_087-Copier-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"The villa seen from the cactus garden.\" width=\"810\" height=\"456\" srcset=\"https:\/\/universvoyage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Photo-2_Majorelle_087-Copier-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/universvoyage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Photo-2_Majorelle_087-Copier-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/universvoyage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Photo-2_Majorelle_087-Copier-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/universvoyage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Photo-2_Majorelle_087-Copier-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/universvoyage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Photo-2_Majorelle_087-Copier.jpg 1365w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 810px) 100vw, 810px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-807\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>The villa seen from the cactus garden.<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong><br \/>\n\"Voracious Ogre<\/strong><br \/>\nIn this oasis of greenery, which Majorelle continued to enrich until his death, tall trees - palms, pistachio trees, coconut palms, pomegranate palms - form a protective canopy against the scorching summer sun or the biting winter.

From gutters to pools, from fountains to canals, water, the soul of the Islamic garden, mirrors the plants and brings a little freshness to the visitor. Over the years, the garden has been transformed and enlarged three times to reach four hectares. Nothing was too good for this little paradise on earth, \"a voracious ogre on which I have been toiling for twenty-two years and which would take another twenty years to make the angels of Paradise die of envy\", as Majorelle put it in 1945, shortly before an exhibition in Casablanca where he hoped to \"rebuild his finances\". Heavenly inspiration, but a titanic task that he pursued tirelessly! Majorelle painted to enable his \"earthly paradise\" to continue to exist, and it was this garden that would ultimately bring his painted work to light better than anyone else.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_809\" style=\"width: 210px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/universvoyage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Photo-4_Majorelle_bd_8669-Copier.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-2\" data-rl_title=\"Les palmiers prot\u00e8gent du soleil ardent les esp\u00e8ces plus fragiles.\" data-rl_caption=\"Les palmiers prot\u00e8gent du soleil ardent les esp\u00e8ces plus fragiles.\" title=\"The palm trees protect the more fragile species from the scorching sun.\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-809\" class=\"wp-image-809 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/universvoyage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Photo-4_Majorelle_bd_8669-Copier-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"The palm trees protect the more fragile species from the scorching sun.\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/universvoyage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Photo-4_Majorelle_bd_8669-Copier-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/universvoyage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Photo-4_Majorelle_bd_8669-Copier-400x600.jpg 400w, https:\/\/universvoyage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Photo-4_Majorelle_bd_8669-Copier.jpg 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-809\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>The palm trees protect the more fragile species from the scorching sun.<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>The rescue<\/strong><br \/>\nHowever, it was not until some twenty years after the death of its creator that the angels once again watched over the garden. Open to the public but abandoned, the site was frequented mainly by lovers who found refuge there and fishermen who cut bamboo to make fishing rods... In 1980, Yves Saint-Laurent and Pierre Berg\u00e9, until then visitors and admirers of the Majorelle garden, bought it, saving it from the property speculation that was undermining Marrakech's heritage. The long months of restoration work that followed led, in January 2001, to the creation of the Association pour la Sauvegarde et le Rayonnement du Jardin Majorelle (Association for the Preservation and Promotion of the Majorelle Garden), thus ensuring its continued existence. The site has regained all its splendour. With a museum to boot. The blue workshop, designed in 1931 by the architect Paul Sinoir, now houses a small museum of Islamic art. A showcase for the personal collection of Pierre Berg\u00e9 and Yves Saint-Laurent, it features Islamic art objects from the Maghreb and the wider Orient. Ceramics, pottery, weapons and jewellery make up an extremely beautiful collection. There is also an area devoted to the painter Majorelle.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/universvoyage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Photo-6_8694-Copier.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-3\" data-rl_title=\"Majorelle &#8211; Maroc\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"Majorelle - Morocco\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-811 size-medium alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/universvoyage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Photo-6_8694-Copier-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"Majorelle - Morocco\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/universvoyage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Photo-6_8694-Copier-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/universvoyage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Photo-6_8694-Copier-400x600.jpg 400w, https:\/\/universvoyage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Photo-6_8694-Copier.jpg 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/a>Following the death of the famous couturier on 1 June 2008, a stele was erected in his memory in the Jardin Majorelle. The garden was donated by Yves Saint-Laurent and Pierre Berg\u00e9 in the early 1980s to a British foundation, which is responsible for its upkeep. It is visited by over 600,000 people every year.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A little history<\/strong><br \/>\nJacques Majorelle was born in Nancy in 1886. He was the son of the famous cabinetmaker Louis Majorelle. He came to Marrakech in 1917, fell in love with Morocco and in 1924 acquired a plot of land in the palm grove that was to become his garden, an Eden that he opened to the public in 1947. He died in France in 1962 of leukaemia and is buried in Nancy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Visit<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Majorelle garden is open every day (opening times vary according to the season). Dogs and picnics are not permitted. A small caf\u00e9-restaurant serves Moroccan specialities, excellent cuisine and attentive service. Lovely terrace overlooking the garden.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/universvoyage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Photo-5_majorelle-OK_8711-Copier.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-4\" data-rl_title=\"Majorelle &#8211; Maroc\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"Majorelle - Morocco\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-810 alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/universvoyage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Photo-5_majorelle-OK_8711-Copier.jpg\" alt=\"Majorelle - Morocco\" width=\"512\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/universvoyage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Photo-5_majorelle-OK_8711-Copier.jpg 512w, https:\/\/universvoyage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Photo-5_majorelle-OK_8711-Copier-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/universvoyage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Photo-5_majorelle-OK_8711-Copier-400x600.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nAvenue Yacoub El Mansour<br \/>\nMarrakech<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.jardinmajorelle.com\">www.jardinmajorelle.com<\/a><br \/>\nTel.
