Mosara Garden, Heritage public garden in Fes el-Jdid, Morocco.
The Mosara Garden spans 67 hectares north of Fes el-Jdid, featuring stone remnants of ancient water systems and architectural elements from its royal past.
Sultan Abu Ya'qub Yusuf established this royal garden in 1286, incorporating a large waterwheel system to distribute water from the Fes River throughout the grounds.
The garden's design followed Islamic architectural principles with geometric patterns and water features that influenced later Moroccan garden developments.
Visitors can access the garden area through Bab Segma, where traces of original water basins remain visible within the current cemetery grounds.
The garden's advanced hydraulic system included multiple norias and an aqueduct that elevated water from Bab Dekkakin to Bab Segma for irrigation purposes.
