The larger museum in Marrakesh will be located on Rue Yves-Saint Laurent near Jardin Majorelle, a garden that he and business partner&nbsp;Pierre Berg&eacute;&nbsp;saved from development in 1980. Currently, it is&nbsp;home to a Berber cultural museum and cultural site that receives 700,000 visitors a year.
