If you want a respite on your way to and from Rabat or Kenitra, stop at these tropical gardens. Watch for the small road sign, which comes up abruptly. This garden created by Marcel Francois, a French horticulturalist, in the mid 20th century, is full of exotic plant life and water features. It is worth taking an hour to walk under the shade of its tall trees and to visit its different areas with plants from Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean. Bring your own water and try to get there either early or late. In the middle of the day, the gardens are full of noisy, boisterous schoolchildren. The WC is clean and the entrance fee is $2.00 USD. If you are on the main road (N1) you might want to check out Medhya, a beach resort famous during the French protectorate and favored by American GI’s stationed at the now closed US beaches. A famous battle took place there during WWII between General Patton’s forces and those of Vichy France.

Located just inside the walls, the gardens provide an escape from the traffic and winding maze of roads where beautiful plants and flowers bloom. I recommend stopping at the garden cafe for mint tea and cookies with a view of the water.
