Tour Plan
Casablanca’s old medina: Once you are in the old walled city, everything is self-explanatory. The town is small enough not to get lost, the streets are relatively wide, and the merchants are generally not pushy. If you haven’t come to the market for textiles or spices, then meander through the tempting food stalls.
Hassan II Mosque: The most visited highlight of Casablanca is the Hassan II Mosque with its large minaret of 200 meters high. You cannot miss this mosque, located on the Atlantic coast of Casa. The Hassan II Mosque dominates the skyline of sea and land, day and night when illuminated by a laser beam. The Mega Mosque, as it is called, is one of the largest mosques in the world: the prayer hall is the size of four football fields and 80,000 worshipers can easily find a seat on the esplanade outside. The architect Michel Pinseau is French. Thousands of Moroccan craftsmen created the impressive details of this monument that imposes spirituality on the bustling trading city.
Ain Diab: The other side of the big city life is beyond the harbor, the old medina, and the huge new mosque in the suburb of Ain Diab. The coastal road leads to a series of luxury hotels, clubs, and oceanfront resorts. This is where the residents of Casablanca go in summer to escape the heat.
