In the heart of Marrakech’s Medina lies the stunning Bahia Palace, a masterpiece of Moroccan architecture and design. Built in the late 19th century for Grand Vizier Si Moussa and later expanded by his son, the palace was meant to be the most magnificent residence of its time—and it truly lives up to its name, “Bahia,” meaning brilliance.

Walking through Bahia Palace feels like entering a fairytale.
