Ménara (jardin)

La Ménara (en arabe : حدائق المنارة) est un vaste jardin planté d'oliviers aménagé sous la dynastie des Almoahades à environ 45 minutes à pied de la place Jemaa el-Fna, au centre de Marrakech, au Maroc. Au cœur de ce jardin, un grand bassin au pied d'un pavillon sert de réservoir d'eau pour irriguer les agricultures. C'est un endroit très paisible, à l'écart du tumulte de la ville. C'est donc un lieu privilégié pour les promenades. Le bassin est alimenté en eau grâce à un système hydraulique vieux de plus de 700 ans, qui achemine l'eau depuis les montagnes situées à 30 km environ de la ville de Marrakech. Ce bassin permet l'irrigation de l'oliveraie.

Menara Gardens

The Menara Gardens (Arabic: حدائق المنارة) are a historic public garden and orchard in Marrakesh, Morocco. They were established in the 12th century (circa 1157) by the Almohad Caliphate ruler Abd al-Mu'min. Along with the Agdal Gardens and the historic walled city of Marrakesh, the gardens have been listed as UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1985. The gardens are laid out around a central water basin and reservoir, next to which is a pleasure pavilion dating in its current form from the 19th century. The reservoir and its pavilion, often framed in pictures against the background of the High Atlas Mountains to the south, are considered one of the iconic views and symbols of Marrakesh.
