Why visit Rabat?
Rabat, Morocco's capital, is calmer and greener than Marrakech or Fez, with wide boulevards, gardens and an ocean-front setting where the Bou Regreg river meets the Atlantic. Its historic sites are listed together by UNESCO as a modern capital and historic city.
The Kasbah of the Udayas, a fortress with blue-and-white lanes and the Andalusian Gardens, overlooks the river mouth and the surfers below. The unfinished Hassan Tower, the minaret of a 12th-century mosque that was never completed, stands beside the Mausoleum of Mohammed V, guarded by horsemen in ceremonial dress. Explore the Chellah, a walled necropolis with Roman ruins and medieval Merinid tombs where storks nest, and the compact medina with its markets. The Mohammed VI Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art shows Moroccan art. Across the river, Salé has its own old town. Rabat is on the Al Boraq high-speed line, so Tangier and Casablanca are quick trips.
