The Saadian Tombs are a historic royal necropolis in Marrakech that date to the time of the Saadian Dynasty (1549-1659). They are located on the south side of the Kasbah Mosque, inside the royal kasbah (citadel) district of the city. Because of the beauty of their decoration, the tombs have become a major attraction for visitors to Marrakech. This view is of the Chamber of the Mihrab in the larger mausoleum of the Saadian Tombs.
