Riad
Definition
House attesting of the architectural Heritage of Morocco.
Description
Generally, a riad has parts which open on a court or an interior garden. Often, one sees outside only one bored wall of decorated doors. But inside it is a rich decoration with the Morrocan woman: walls covered with squares of mosaic or zelliges, the ground of the court is covered flagstones of marble... Recently much of riads were transformed into houses of hosts and are very solicited by the tourists who prefer the rooms of hosts. One as well meets the orthographies riad and ryad.
