The Guéliz shopping district is located in the New City. If you want to get to know modern Marrakech, this is the place to be.
As a shop lover, you'll get your fill here. The neighbourhood has been developing for years. Big European and Moroccan chains have settled here, but also nice French boutiques. The latter can be found mainly in the side streets. You can shop and eat cheaply in this district, but you can also spend all your money here on that one perfect designer tunic. The highlight of this district is the Jardin Majorelle (Gardens of Yves Saint Laurent): an oasis of calm in the hustle and bustle of the city. You will also find affordable three- and four-star hotels in Guéliz, many with large roof terraces that come alive in the evening.
