🌍 Rabat: I called The Hidden Gem of Morocco
Welcome to Rabat, the elegant capital of Morocco! Often overshadowed by its famous siblings like Marrakech and Casablanca, Rabat is a peaceful yet vibrant city where history meets modern charm.

🏛️ Top Places to Visit
1. Hassan Tower & Mausoleum of Mohammed V
This iconic site is a must-see. The Hassan Tower, an unfinished minaret from the 12th century, stands next to the beautifully designed mausoleum of King Mohammed V—an architectural masterpiece.
2. Kasbah of the Udayas
The Kasbah of the Udayas is a very old and beautiful place in Rabat. It is a small village inside a big wall, near the ocean. The streets are narrow and painted blue and white, which makes it very nice for walking and taking pictures.
Inside the Kasbah, you can visit the Andalusian Gardens—a quiet place with trees, flowers, and birds. You can also go to the top and see a great view of the sea and the city.
The Kasbah is calm, peaceful, and full of history. It is one of the best places to visit in Rabat.
🏛️ 3. Chellah
Old Roman and Islamic ruins with flowers, trees, and storks (large birds). A calm place to walk and take pictures.
