27/47.- Marrakech, Medersa Ben Youssef, main courtyard

Once you enter the Madrassa you get to this central courtyard. The beauty of this site is difficult to describe. I hope you will appreciate it in the adjoining picture.

Another of the things that will call your attention is the tranquility that reigns here. Although the place is pretty popular Among tourists, if you came here first hour in the morning, or first hour in the afternoon -- again the site closes its doors during the midday heat --, you will be able to visit the site almost on your own.
