This garden displayed the architectural style of the Moroccan home which showed the influence through the ages of the Phoenician, Roman, Arab, Andalousian and African visitors. Two large gazebos were set in the middle of the garden – one as a rest stop for visitors, the other to display typical products including decorative brassware and aromatic oils. There were displays of craftwork on their brassware. A high wall enclosed the garden. A special attraction of the Moroccan’s Mediterranean-styled garden was the fountain in the center which provided respite for those who entered from the glaring sun. The garden was decorated with typical flora including the rose which gave off a strong perfume, oranges and date palms.
