Jardin d'Olhão

A garden commemorating Agadir's sister-city ties with Olhão in Portugal, with an exhibition of photographs of the old town before the earthquake.

The Jardin d'Olhão was built in 1992 to commemorate Agadir's friendship with Olhão, a Portuguese fishing port. The garden has walls in Moroccan-Andalusian style, fountains and flower beds. Its small exhibition hall, 'Agadir Memory', displays photographs and documents of the old town before the great earthquake of 1960, which helps explain why the city feels so 'new'. Admission to the garden is free. It is in the city center and pairs well with a visit to the Amazigh Cultural Heritage Museum and the Vallée des Oiseaux.
