There are different beautiful places you will discover on your adventure motorbike tours in Morocco. But as an outsider, you don’t have knowledge about some unknown places that are worth watching and capturing for your Morocco travel photography. So, let us learn about them:

The country of Morocco has different sights of fortresses, palaces, picturesque gardens, holy places, and all kinds of oases, mountains, and valleys. This exotic country attracts tourists from all around the world. Morocco is not only known for its beaches but also for its interesting places. So, let us learn about some of the best sights in Morocco. 

Majorelle Garden Drenched in the wave of poetry, the Majorelle Garden annually pulls countless tourists to its paths. The house is painted in blue color, which looks remarkably effective against the backdrop of plain-looking mud walls. Majorelle garden looks beautiful especially in the winters when its walls acquire the identical color as the sky above Morocco. 

The master of this house was a French artist named Jacques Majorelle. He reached Morocco in 1919, being a patient of tuberculosis. Grappling with the disease, Jacques obtained a house and began to build a garden with rare plants. Soon this hobby turned into something more. The artist Jacques contacted botanists from all over the world and brought some unusual trees and flowers from South Africa, cacti from Mexico, lotuses from China. So, when this miracle of landscape art was ready, Jacques opened the garden gate for everyone, and hence it came to be known as Majorelle Garden. 

Bahia Palace

The grand and exquisite Bahia Palace was built for 7 years. The reason behind its construction was the greed of the vizier Sidi Moussa, who desired to build a palace for one of his 24 wives. He regularly bought more new neighboring plots of land. It was challenging for the architect designing the palace to invariably make new changes so that the palace came out to look appropriate and beautiful. 

Al Koutoubia Mosque 

The Al-Koutoubia Mosque is the largest mosque in Marrakech, which is well-known for its grand and magnificent 69-meter minaret. Seeing the light in the 12th century, Moorish sultans fancied the tower so much that it served as a prototype for two other minarets - the Hassan Tower in Rabat and the Giralda tower in Seville. 

When the mosque was built it was used for serving several different functions, including a library, university, and a school. 

The mosque unites the elements of Moroccan and Andalusian architecture it is coated with colored stucco and decorated with splendidly colored bright mosaics. So this makes it more beautiful for photography purposes. The pinnacle of the minaret is furnished with four golden balls. According to legend, they were formed of the jewelry of the wife of the Sultan Yakub al-Mansur, which she had to deliver to a charitable deed as a sign of her remorse for the sin committed during the holy month.

The Great Mosque of Hassan II

The Hassan II Great Mosque is located on the banks of the Atlantic Ocean. It is the second-largest mosque in the world after the iconic Mecca. The height of the minaret is 210 meters, which significantly surpasses the height of the Great Pyramid of Giza. The mosque was built recently, in 1993 with the huge sum of 800 million dollars spent on the construction that was collected on donations from believers. The mosque is so enormous that 25 thousand believers can pray inside it at the same time, and another 80 thousand can also pray in the square nearby.
