.....the Menara gardens in Marrakech - at the gates of the Atlas mountains and a wonderful peaceful retreat from the madness of the city centre. The gardens were created by the Almohad ruler Sultan Adu r-Rahman in the 12th century. The name menara derives from the pavilion with its small green pyramid roof (menzeh), which was built during the 16th century Saadi dynasty and renovated in 1869 by sultan Abderrahmane of Morocco, who used to stay here in summertime.

This Image GRABBED my EYE. That's Why I Stopped By.
Thanks For Sharing ! Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience
The Atlas Mountains must be particularly beautiful, when contrasted with the Mediterranean to semi-arid climate north of them and the Sahara to the South.

Why do the pictures come out square when the lens is round??
Woo hoo this is a dandy with that mountain range in the distance. Excellent picture. The title make me think of the old song..Marrakesh Express. I Googled the word and there are variations of the spelling.

Howdy y'all
Hope that goose don't mess on my turkey. This is really great Patti. There isn't anything I don't like about it. The mountains in the background are stupendous. Their coloring and the clouds are beautiful.

The question is not what you look at, but what you see ~ Marcel Proust
Wonderful capture with great colors and composition! The mountains in the background give dept to the image. But next time please go somewhere with easier to pronounce names...
Great work!

Snow Storms finally stopped and we got 8 inches, pooh.
This is just gorgeous Fogz. Makes me think of 'The Far Pavilions' do you remember that? It goes into my faves anyway, such a beautiful combination of the green trees breaking up the line of icy mountains in the distance, the warm tones and square shape of the building which of course you have placed perfectly, and the shimmering reflections. A real beauty and worth way more than 69.
