Rabat - Oudaïas Museum

The Oudaïas Museum is situated in the opulent 17th century lodge built by Moulay Ismail as his first Rabat residence, with a lush garden that is a masterpiece. At the far end of the lodge is a room reproducing an ancient Moroccan interior with a vast bay opening onto this glorious spectacle. Cushions in brocade, silk and gold cover the divans around the room. A little further on, in a cool marble room, stand rows of ancient illuminated Qur'ans, jewelry, pottery and musical instruments. There is also an exquisite collection of carpets.
