Photos of Menara Gardens

The Odessa Opera House is not only a very beautiful theater in Ukraine, but also a rare building in Eastern Europe. Designed by an Austrian architect in the early 19th century, it has strong Viennese Baroque colors. The theater is simple in appearance and magnificent in interior. From the surrounding walls to the columns, it is decorated with splendid classical sculptures. The Menara Garden is located in the west of the city of Marrakech, at the entrance of the Atlas Mountain, and the garden gate is facing Qutu Biya Mosque. The garden is not big and is a place where the locals spend their time. The park is full of lush trees, and a pool of water in the center is said to be holy water from the Atlas Mountains. Many fish swim to the pool and wait for tourists to feed. The Menara Gardens were built by Abdul, the ruler of Amonhad, in the twelfth century (1130 AD). "Menara" takes its name from the building's small green pyramid-shaped roof, which is called "menzeh" in the local language. The gazebo in Menara Gardens was built in the 16th century by the Saadian dynasty.
