Morocco’s modern capital and one of its four imperial cities; you stroll between eighth-century Almohad walls, royal palaces and contemporary museums. Climb the unfinished Hassan Tower, wander the blue-and-white alleys of the Udayas Kasbah above the Bou Regreg estuary, and end your day among the ruins and tombs of Chellah.
See the Grand Theatre designed by Zaha Hadid, and ride the Al Boraq high-speed train connecting Rabat with Tangier and Casablanca.
