Ben Youssef Madrasa

Gorgeous architecture

A lot of Morocco also looks the same way I had envisioned.  But what I was not prepared for was the exquisite detail of the patterns in the tile, in the painted window shutters, the carvings in the archways.  I also didn’t expect such variety of materials used to make up one structure.

This photo is from the ancient school of the Koran.  I just loved the mix of patterns, textures, colors and shapes.  Some is wood, some is marble, some tile, and yet it all blends together so beautifully!

 

School of the Koran

Built in the 14th Century, the Ben Youssef Madrasa was one of the most spectacular examples of architecture I think I’ve ever seen.
