RABAT, IN THE HEARTLAND OF THE FASCINATING CITY

Rabat is a cultural city deep-rooted in history. Many masterpieces of Moroccan heritage line its streets and squares. Visit the Kasbah des Oudayas which is a maze of white and blue splendid architecture embellished by the surrounding gardens. Not far from the walls, stand the imposing walls of the Chellah; a necropolis dating from the time of the Merinids. Crossing the walls is like entering another world: walk among ancient vestiges, gardens and storks.

Rabat is also a modern eco-responsible capital with its green spaces. Beautiful parks await you, such as the botanical test garden or the Exotic Gardens of Bouknadel which is a few kilometres from the city. Rabat boasts an outstanding coastline; on the Atlantic Ocean shores, it has kilometres of well-equipped beaches that lead to the neighbouring city of Casablanca.

As Morocco's capital city, Rabat seamlessly blends administrative importance with cultural richness. The city's modern districts showcase contemporary architecture and urban planning, while historical areas preserve centuries of Moroccan heritage. The Hassan Tower and Mohammed V Mausoleum complex stands as a testament to both historical grandeur and modern reverence.

The city's vibrant cultural scene comes alive during the Mawazine World Music Festival, one of the world's largest music festivals, attracting international artists and millions of visitors. Throughout the year, Rabat's numerous museums, galleries, and cultural centers offer insights into Morocco's rich artistic heritage.

For those seeking authentic experiences, the medina's traditional markets offer a glimpse into daily Moroccan life, while the city's modern shopping districts cater to contemporary tastes. The mix of traditional craftsmanship and modern creativity makes Rabat a unique destination for cultural exploration.
