Famous for its romantic magnetism, fascinating architecture and colonial legacy, and made more famous by the Hollywood classic of the same name, Casablanca is Morocco’s most beautiful gem. Located on the coast of Atlantic Ocean, this former port city is home to some stunning, pristine beaches such as Ain Diab, Bouznika and Corniche. Casablanca Cathedral, Sindabad Park, Place des Nations Unies and Mahkama du Pacha are few of the other popular attractions of the city.
Featuring the world’s tallest minaret (210 meters), Hassan II Mosque is one of the most magnificent structures in the city. An intriguing mix of delicate spices and aromatic flavors, Moroccan food remains one of the biggest hits with the tourists who come here from all over the world. Seafood, of course, is a major temptation for all food lovers. When it comes to shopping for exclusive souvenirs and gifts, markets like Marche Centrale (Central Market), Darb Ghalla and Exposition Nationale D'artisanat are the places to hit.
