Entrance
Even the restaurant had beautiful tiling.
Zellige-style windows
The stained glass windows around the harem had the same parttern as the zellige tiles.
Delicate
The tiles were very old and delicate. They asked us not to touch the walls.
More painted ceilings
With beautiful tiles.
Small courtyard
I've also see it called the front courtyard.
Hard to pick
Everything was so beautiful it was hard to pick which photos to take.
Zellige
This type of tile is called zellige. It's tile chips set in to plaster. Craftsmen are trained from childhood in this artform.
Brilliance
Bahia means, "brilliance." It was meant to be the greatest palace of all time.

Beautiful tile!
The tiles at Bahia Palace were so old we weren't allowed to walk on a lot of it. You can see Bill on the other side of the building.
