Route

1. Many things happen around the hustle and bustle of the main square in Chefchaouen: Plaza Uta El-Hammam. Sitting in the center of the medina, the square is surrounded by restaurants, shops, the Kasbah, and the Grand Mosque. The Grand Mosque is still used for religious worship, so it is not open to tourists; however, its unique octagonal minaret can be viewed from the square. Sit by the tree in the center of the cobbled square, and people-watch for a break from sightseeing – a fun thing to do while in Chefchaouen.

2. This is a small but beautiful waterfall situated on the outskirts of the medina, amongst pretty woodland. Sit and enjoy a mint tea here, dangle your feet in the cool mountain water, and watch locals wash their clothes here. It can be reached via the hiking trail that takes you up to the Spanish Mosque, so it is a nice thing to do in Chefchaouen if you have time to stop while passing by.

3. The Spanish Mosque is a beautiful building that sits isolated on a hill above Chefchaouen. The mosque was built in the 1920s, during the war. However, it was never actually used and now sits abandoned, looking out across the city. It is an easy 30-minute hike to the top, where you will be rewarded with incredible views.

4. The number one reason to visit Chefchaouen is for its beautiful streets, filled with houses painted in a variety of blues. There are many theories as to why the walls are blue. Some say it’s for practical reasons, such as keeping mosquitoes away or keeping the houses cooler.

5. In the centre of the medina lies the beautiful Andalusian Gardens, a tranquil green oasis complementing the calming flood of blue that characterizes the town. Within these gardens is the Ethnographic Museum, known as the Kasbah Museum, home to an unrivalled collection of artefacts from the Chefchaouen region, with everything from pottery to musical instruments on show.

About Rabat

Rabat is Morocco's calm Atlantic capital, with a hilltop kasbah, a medieval tower, a royal mausoleum, Roman ruins at Chellah and a river-mouth beach.

Rabat lies on the Atlantic coast at the mouth of the Bou Regreg river, facing its twin city Salé across the water. The Kasbah of the Udayas, a 12th-century fortress with blue-and-white lanes and an Andalusian garden, stands on the cliff above the river mouth. Nearby, the Hassan Tower is the unfinished minaret of a mosque begun in 1195, surrounded by rows of broken columns. The mausoleum of Mohammed V, guarded by horsemen, stands opposite.

Top-ranked sights in Rabat: Hassan Tower (Tour Hassan), Kasbah of the Udayas (Casbah des Oudaïas), Mausoleum of Mohammed V (Mausolée de Mohammed V).
