About
Schnelle Fakten: Bold cobalt walls pop against lush green palms and towering cacti, a color mixed by Jacques Majorelle to make the garden feel otherworldly. A painter's private paradise attracted a wave of visitors after being rescued by Yves Saint Laurent and Pierre Bergé, and the grounds host roughly 300 plant species alongside a tiny museum of Berber art.
Highlights: Step into a courtyard drenched in cobalt pigment, where the air smells of orange blossom and mint while a dozen small fountains whisper under palm fronds, making the heat feel softer. Fashion legend Yves Saint Laurent and partner Pierre Bergé bought and restored the neglected property in 1980, famously using their private collection to create a Berber Museum and keep the artist's vivid blue alive.
Insider tips
- Buy a timed ticket online to skip the long entrance queue, especially during high season.
- Bring a wide-angle lens and aim for golden hour to capture the cobalt villa and reflecting pools at their best.
- Wear comfortable shoes and a sun hat, pathways are shaded but the walk can still be warm.
- Skip the busiest central path and explore the cactus and bamboo sections for quieter photo spots.
