Behind its status as the administrative capital of the kingdom, royal residence, and political and diplomatic ballet hides Rabat the sweet bathed in the lights of knowledge and culture. Its body refreshed in the waters of the river Bouregrag, and feet soaked in the waves of the Atlantic, Rabat seems young and modern, however it draws its identity from the background of history where its roots are nourished in the depths of the 12th century. In Rabat, as in many places in Morocco, we are simultaneously in history and modernity. We never tire of strolling through its large green spaces, parks, zoo, on the esplanade of the Hassan tower to rediscover the glorious history of Yacoub El Mansour, meditate on the graves of kings Mohamed V and Hassan II in the nearby mausoleum, cross the road and enter through the great gate the kasbah of Oudayas on the edge of the Bouregreg and rejoice eyes at the view of the fresh waters of the river mix with those salty of the nearby Atlantic Ocean.
Rich in an ancient architectural ensemble, Islamic, Hispanic, European, discover the historical riches around this city such as the archaeological city of Chellah and the nearby historic city of Salé (founded in the eleventh century) on the other side of the river Bouregreg, immerse yourself in the atmosphere of the old medina behind its ochre walls, and emerge from it by strolling along the modern avenues of the city center or Agdal.
Also city of knowledge, it has several universities, institutes, high schools and various educational centers, also welcoming students from foreign countries. During your stay, many monuments, museums, exhibition galleries, etc... await your visit to Rabat, now called the city of lights, a name that is associated with other titles of administrative capital and imperial city.
