Rabat: Unveil the History and Elegance of Morocco's Capital
Rabat, capital of Morocco located in the North of the country, on the Atlantic coast, on the left bank of the mouth of the Bou Regreg, vis-a-vis the city of Salé. Rabat is the main political and administrative center of the country, where the royal palace, the government authorities and the embassies are located.
Rabat is home to areas as diverse as Agdal, Souissi, Ryad (residential and wealthy neighborhoods), Ocean and Aviation and Yacoub Ben Mansour. Salé, which is part of the conurbation, is for its part a dormitory suburb connected to Rabat by a bridge. Surrounded by ramparts, the capital of the Kingdom has an important architectural heritage that includes many monuments such as the gates of the enclosure of the Kasbah Udaia, the minaret of the mosque Hassan (twelfth century), which rises to 55 m, one of the rare remains of this unfinished building and, near the city, the necropolis of Chellah. The city is home to several museums (archeology, crafts). It is the seat of Mohammed V University (1957) and several cultural and educational institutes.
