Courtyard, Ben Youssef Medersa, Marrakesh, Morocco
Caption
Evening sunlight illuminates the stucco and cedar decoration of the central courtyard. Originally founded in the 14th century, the Ben Youssef Medersa was rebuilt by the Saadian Sultan Abdallah al-Ghalib in 1565. Beautifully decorated with Islamic designs and calligraphy, it is the largest madrassa (religious school) in Morocco.
