A different question from Bahia
The regional tourism council places El Badi in the Kasbah and connects the palace with Ahmed El Mansour in the late sixteenth century. To choose between monuments, define your interest: do you want to study the composition of a palace complex or the detail of an interior decoration? These are different visit themes rather than a ranking.
Prepare to read surviving fabric
Give a page three columns: what survives, what a documented plan shows and what a narrative reconstructs. Compare axes and proportions before imagining uses. A surviving wall alone cannot establish a ceiling or furniture arrangement. Ask which source supports an interpretation and distinguish the reconstruction from a visible feature.
Separate history from ticketing
The ministry’s ticket page identifies the site, but the descriptions checked contain historical inconsistencies; we do not reproduce them as a detailed chronology. Confirm conditions, open areas and any temporary installations for your date. A past event at the palace provides neither a current programme nor a guarantee of particular access.
