Agdal Basin
Meknès, MAplace
About
Immediately north of the Heri Es Souani granaries and stables lies an enormous stone-lined lake, the Agdal Basin. Originally it was fed by a complex aqueduct system some 25km long and it served as both a reservoir for the sultan’s gardens and a pleasure lake. Today the water is stagnant, but it's still a pleasant place to stroll, with a giant Giacometti-like statue of a traditional water-seller watching over it.
