Itinerary

This opulent mosque, built at enormous expense, is set on an outcrop jutting over the ocean with a 210m-tall minaret that's a city landmark. It's a showcase of the finest Moroccan artisanship: hand-carved stone and wood, intricate marble flooring and inlay, gilded cedar ceilings and exquisite zellige (geometric mosaic tilework) abound. One of two Moroccan mosques open to non-Muslims, multi-language guided tours are conducted outside prayer times for modestly clad visitors. There’s also a small museum showcasing the craftsmanship involved. Its minaret soaring 210 metres – or 60 stories – over the Atlantic Ocean, makes the Hassan II Mosque in Casablanca, Morocco the tallest minaret in the world, and the tallest buiding in Morocco. Its dramatic location overhanging the ocean waves echoes verse from the Quran, which states that God’s throne was built upon the water. Believers pray on a floor that can be heated when necessary, and can feel the breeze through the retractable roof in warmer months. More

La Corniche is Casablanca's beach neighborhood, stretching for a few miles along the ocean, just west of the Hassan II Mosque. Its heart is Corniche Boulevard, looking very Mediterranean with stately palm trees and the beach on one side and a line of shops, cafes, bars, amusement centers and fast food restaurants on the other. Fancier hotels are located further along the coast, on the Boulevard de l'Ocean Atlantique. La Corniche is a nice area to stroll along and watch the ocean pounding the sand, have a jog or sit in one of the many outside cafes and watch the world pass by. More

Morocco is a marketplace with historical and cultural significance. It is located on Muhammad V Boulevard, among the colonial architecture of the 20th century, facing the Central Market Tramway Station. a broad selection of stalls, Primarily a fish market but without that strong fishy smell. Strong competition from small eateries on perimeter of market to get you to select your fish of choice which they then prepare & serve to you alongside salad, bread, etc. There's also stalls of fresh fruit & veg and flower stalls. A genuine, for better , Casablanca experience. More

The best entry point is the Marrakech gate, with its imposing clock tower. There are no reliable maps but, with a little twisting and turning, you may find your way to the old Portuguese fortress that backs onto the old city. Marked by great iron cannons pointing out to sea, the bastion is known as La Sqala. It's a restaurant now, offering exceptional cuisine from all corners of Morocco. Famous for its salads and fish tagines, La Sqala is the exception to the rule that says Moroccan food is best eaten in the home. More

Walk along Rue Chakab Arsalane to find another local place of worship - the Chleuh Mosque. Located in Old Medina's labyrinth – one of the oldest and most authentic areas of Casablanca, the Cheluh Mosque is a beautiful building with a specific architecture. It is the city's main Friday Mosque and is named after the Chleuh people, a Berber ethnic group. More
