Lonely Planet review for Koutoubia Minbar

Not to be confused with an ordinary staircase or a hotel beverage dispensary, this minbar (pulpit) is the Koutoubia's 12th-century prayer pulpit. With intricately carved cedar wood steps and minute gold, silver and ivory marquetry, this minbar is a credit to Cordoban craftsmanship under Moroccan rule and maâlem Aziz - the Metropolitan Museum of Art restoration uncovered his signature under the inlay.
