Yves Saint Laurent gifted the Jardin Majorelle to Marrakech, the city that adopted him in 1964. Saint Laurent and his partner Pierre Bergé bought the electric-blue villa and its garden to preserve the vision of its original owner, landscape painter Jacques Majorelle, and keep it open to the public. The Berber museum within the grounds of the garden houses one of the best collections of jewellery, costumes and pottery; beautifully curated and uniquely displayed.
