The Royal Stables built in 1665, although now a ruin, are an amazing site, as this massive stable yard was constructed to comfortably house no less that twelve thousand of the royal horses. King Moulay Ismail had a great respect and admiration for these gracious animals, even more than he did for his human counterparts. His horses were waited on hand and foot, with a groom and a slave for each horse, to ensure that all their needs were met, stables kept in immaculate condition and his horses being taken care of. It is even said that after a horse had completed a journey to Mecca, slaves were forced to catch the urine in a bowl, as even the earth was too undeserving for the horse to urinate on.
