The mosque is also known by several other names, such as Jami ‘al-Kutubiyah, the Koutoubia Mosque, the Kutubiya Mosque, the Kutubiyyin Mosque, and the Booksellers’ Mosque. It is located in the district of the southwest medina of Marrakech. The mosque is decorated with curved windows, a strip of ceramic, pointed merlons, and decorative arches; it has a large square with gardens and is lit at night.

2. While its nearby neighbor Bab er-Robb acts as the official entrance to the city, Bab Agnaou functions as the main entrance to the Kasbah which is the site of the El Badi Palace, the Saadian Tombs, and the El Mansouria (the kasbah mosque). Bab Aganou is perhaps the most unique of Marrakech’s nineteen gates and its original function, as a royal entrance, is perhaps the reason for this. The corner pieces are decorated with floral decorations extending around a shell is simply exquisite this ornamentation is framed by three panels and on these panels is an inscription from the Quran.

About Marrakech

Ai piedi dell'Atlante, Marrakech dalle mura rosse è famosa per la medina labirintica, la piazza vivace, i riad tranquilli e i giardini.

Jemaa el-Fna, la grande piazza al centro della medina, cambia carattere nel corso della giornata: dai venditori di succhi e dagli incantatori di serpenti del mattino alle bancarelle avvolte dal fumo e ai musicisti dopo il tramonto. Il minareto della moschea della Koutoubia si innalza vicino come simbolo della città, e i suq si estendono a nord in un dedalo di vicoli che vendono pelle, lanterne, tappeti e spezie.

Top-ranked sights in Marrakech: Atlas Mountains, Tizi-n'Tichka Pass, Jemaa el-Fna (Djemaa el-Fna).
