"Another "newer" mansion in the Medina, Dar al Bacha was the home of a governor of the Marrakesh region in the early 1900's. Built in 1910, it was considered the grandest house in Marrakesh while inhabited. Today, there is a small art museum housing exhibits that include photography. Additionally, the museum houses Bacha Coffee, perhaps one of the most Instagrammed places in Marrakesh. Despite several attempts, I was unable to attend the coffee due to 2.5 hour waits. Go before 11 AM if you want to stand any chance of getting into the cafe, and visit the museum if you have less than an hour wait"

"Dar El Bacha Museum, located in the heart of the medina , is a beautifully restored palace that once served as the residence of Pacha Thami El Glaoui. The museum showcases exquisite examples of Moroccan craftsmanship, including intricate zellige tiles, carved cedarwood, and opulent courtyards. Visitors can explore exhibits on Moroccan history, culture, and art, while enjoying a tranquil environment. The on-site café, Bacha Coffee, offers a luxurious coffee experience, making it a perfect stop during a day of exploration in the medina."

"The Dar El Bacha Museum, also known as the Museum of Confluences (Musée des Confluences), is a captivating museum housed within a stunning 19th-century palace in Marrakesh, Morocco.
Built in 1910 by Pasha Thami El Glaoui, a powerful figure who served as the governor of Marrakesh.
The palace served as El Glaoui's residence until the 1950s. In 2017, the palace underwent extensive renovation and was transformed into the Dar El Bacha Museum."
