Beni Mellah is a modern city located in the western center of Morocco, between Middle Atlas mountains and the plain of Tadla. This mountain city has a population just under 200k. It sits on a crossroad between two major imperial cities: Marrakech and Fes, which makes it a strategic and an important hub for business and tourists. The city is accessible via transportation (Car, Bus, Taxi, train), and it even has an airport. Casablanca and Marrakech are the closed major cities to it.
Beni Mellal has a number of tourist attractions that are connected to. But perhaps the one attraction that is associated with the most is Ein Asardon. The beauty of Ein Asardon is dated in some respects to the mixing of Arabs and Amazighs. This cultural fusion is reflected in the architecture of gardens that extends from the spring of Ain Asardon to its surroundings.
