Jardin Tour Hassan – The Hassan Tower Gardens in Rabat, located at the base of the iconic Hassan Tower, offer a peaceful retreat in the heart of Morocco’s capital. Although the original grand mosque was never completed, the surrounding gardens have become a cherished part of the site. Designed in the Moorish and Andalusian style, the gardens feature lush greenery, neatly landscaped terraces, and winding pathways that invite leisurely strolls. Water is a key element in the garden’s design, with serene ponds, elegant fountains, and narrow canals that gracefully connect different levels of the garden. The sound of flowing water and the shade provided by the trees create a tranquil atmosphere, perfect for relaxation. Visitors can enjoy picturesque views of the historic tower from various vantage points within the gardens.
The gardens also serve as a serene spot for reflection and photography, capturing the essence of traditional Moroccan landscape design. Adding to the gardens’ charm are the carefully maintained flowerbeds and ornamental shrubs, which enhance the visual appeal and offer bursts of color against the backdrop of the Hassan Tower. The design encourages visitors to explore and appreciate the delicate balance between the natural and architectural elements. Seasonal blooms bring different hues and fragrances, making each visit unique throughout the year. Overall, the Hassan Tower Gardens are a delightful example of Moroccan garden artistry, blending historical significance with a tranquil escape. The virtual tour of the Hassan Tower Gardens consists of two 360-degree panoramas, offering a detailed and immersive exploration of the space.
