Directions

Created by Marcel François in the 1950s, these extraordinary gardens just north of Rabat feature themed sections representing Polynesia, Brazil, China, and the Congo, all planted with rare tropical and subtropical species. The labyrinthine paths and dense canopy make it feel like a genuine escape from the city. It is a beloved weekend destination for Rabat families and a genuine horticultural treasure. The site requires some upkeep attention in places, and getting there without a car is inconvenient.
