Badi Palace
Badi Palace, MAplace
About
As 16th-century sultan Ahmed Al Mansour was paving the Badi Palace with gold, turquoise and crystal, his court jester wisecracked, ‘It’ll make a beautiful ruin.’ That jester was no fool: 75 years later the place was looted and today only remnants remain. El Badi's vast courtyard, with its four sunken gardens and reflecting pools, give a hint of the palace's former majesty and the views from the pisé ramparts, where storks nest, are magnificent.
