Walks in the centre of Morocco

If there is a place that sums up the incredible diversity and richness of the beautiful country of Morocco, it is certainly the countless markets called souks.  You will dive into the unforgettable atmosphere and you will find everything imaginable and more.

Morocco's incredible souks

Today, Morocco has a worldwide reputation for its numerous cultural and principally musical festivals. It's a great occasion to discover the artistic riches of the country during a trip to Morocco.

Morocco is world famous for its imperial cities. Every day, tourists from the four corners of the earth tour round the incredible palaces and gardens in these unique places. A breath taking visit in the heart of Morocco's history.

Morocco's superb imperial cities

It's without doubt the most touristy town in Morocco, thanks to its amazing souk and the immense Jema El Fna Square.

Salaam alaikoum! When we think of Morocco, it is the buzzing and colourful souks, filled with the scent of exotic spices that spring to mind. We conjure up images of magnificent palaces, lush gardens and white, sandy beaches that stretch far into the horizon. But there is more to Morocco; a depth that goes beyond its beauty and colour. There is its soul, a heart that beats not only in the bazaars but also across its lands, all there for you to discover as you immerse yourself in the daily lives of its people. By meeting these people and by enjoying their hospitality during your stay, you will see Morocco and its inhabitants unveil the hidden treasures that lie at the core of their culture. From its four royal cities to the misty ramparts of Essaouira, from hiking and trekking across the countryside (be it in the foothills of the Atlas Mountains or on a camel’s back in the Sahara), wonders await you, no matter what your choice of holiday may be.

For many visitors, Casablanca is not a must-see destination in <a href="/morocco/">Moroccan tourism</a> I had been to the country several times without stopping there until one day I took advantage of a stopover on my way to Mali to visit the city.
It is true you could almost believe you are in Europe. Large avenues, residential areas, luxury boutiques… Yet Casablanca is not just the economic epicentre of the country. I suggest you come and lose yourselves in the maze of small streets of the medina, walk the length of the coast and especially visit the sublime Hassan II Mosque. It is dazzling white and one of the only ones in Morocco open to non-Muslims. Standing on an immense esplanade, it is the third largest in the world and its minaret is the tallest in the Maghreb.
Even if Casablanca is far from being a tourist stereotype, the welcome is warm and it is worth a visit.

As one of the most emblematic Moroccan cities, Casablanca is one the most European cities in the country thanks to its town planning carried out under French colonial rule and its resulting status as the economic capital of the country. Yet it is also a most Moroccan city with its incredible Hassan II mosque and the Bab Marrakech medina.&nbsp;I spent a few days in Casablanca and the city remains for me one of the most pleasant in the country. With it truly amazing architecture the city moves from majestic Art Deco avenues to its labyrinth of narrow winding medieval streets where it is almost impossible not to get lost. You move just as easily from traditional souks to cocktail bars in glass towers. A city of contrasts I think Casablanca is a reflection of Morocco today, held between tradition and modernity. In any case it is a must-see destination on a trip to Morocco.

As an economic capital and the largest city in the country, Casablanca is worth a visit if only to see its incredible architecture.
