4. The Royal Palace (formerly Imperial Palace or “dar el-makhzen”) in Rabat, capital of Morocco, is the main royal palace in the country and the official residence of the Moroccan royal family. Originally the palace of Alawite sultans, it is today one of the multiple palaces or royal residences of the “imperial cities” (dars el makhzen). This is the case of the Skhirat Palace, where an attempted coup d'état took place during the time of King Hassan II. Nowadays, the Royal Palace of Rabat is considered more of an administrative building, in fact, King Mohammed VI (son of Hassan II) does not reside there[1]. It is in this palace that the seat of government is located.

About Casablanca

Casablanca is Morocco's largest city and economic engine, an Atlantic metropolis of Art Deco boulevards, a seaside corniche and a monumental mosque.

The Hassan II Mosque stands on a platform over the ocean, its minaret among the tallest in the world and its prayer hall decorated with carved cedar, marble and zellige tilework by thousands of craftsmen. It is one of the few mosques in Morocco that non-Muslim visitors can enter, on guided visits.
