快速信息: The Royal Palace's main gate, Bab Bou Jeloud, is famously covered with 15,000 blue and green tiles arranged in intricate geometric patterns. Its sprawling complex covers about 80,000 square meters, including lavish gardens and grand reception halls not open to the public.

内部小贴士

Wear comfortable shoes as the area around the palace involves walking on cobbled streets.
Bring a camera for close-up shots of the tilework on the gates but respect signs indicating photography restrictions.
Visit early to avoid larger crowds and get unobstructed views of the palace facade.
Skip trying to enter the palace interior; focus on soaking in the exterior grandeur and nearby historic sites.
