Now a green space, the Sahridj dates back to the reign of Youssef Ibn Tachfine who had it dug on the model of a Marrakchi basin, probably to serve as a reservoir and to allow the water supply of the city and the irrigation of the gardens and orchards that made its fame. Today, there is no more water. It has been the subject of many myths, the most cheerful of which involves the daughter of a king who came to bathe there, and the most terrible tells that Aroudj, the eldest of the Barbarossa brothers, had the last Zianid princes drowned there in the 16th century.

largely larger and deeper than Marrakech except that there N is more D water and that it was transformed into a garden with jet D water.
