📍Located in Casablanca, a city on the Atlantic coast in western Morocco, it is a famous historical city in Morocco. It is the country's largest port city, transportation hub and commercial and financial center. Known as the "Lungs of Morocco", it is also a famous tourist city in North Africa. ⭐️Recommend three more famous attractions: 📸 Hassan II Mosque The mosque was built in 1987 and completed in 1993, costing more than US$500 million and covering an area of ​​9 hectares. What's special is that one-third of the area is built on the sea to commemorate the origin of Morocco's Arab ancestors from the sea. The size of the mosque can accommodate 100,000 people praying at the same time It is one of the third largest mosques in the world🕌️ 📸Rick’s cafe In 1942, a movie "The Spies of North Africa" ​​was released, with Casablanca as the location of the story. This movie later made the city of Casablanca famous around the world. In 2004, some capitalists opened Rick’s cafe in Casablanca, which became one of the most famous local attractions. The reason is that the scene of the movie was recreated, but it was not the actual filming location. 📸Casablanca Cathedral This church was built in 1930. Its architectural style combines classical aesthetics with modernity. The church is surrounded by a large public garden. ⚠️Personal recommendation: If you have time after getting off the plane, you can stay in Casablanca for a while, wander around, take photos and check in, but there is really no need to stay for one night. I would rather go directly to the bustling Marrakech and stay in a cheap but luxurious hotel. ⚠️For those who are leaving the country on a late flight, it is enough to finish shopping half a day before departure. #Africa #morocco #casablanca #hassanIImosque #casablancacathedral # clock in

Casablanca is the largest city in Morocco and as such it is a busy city. It is mainly known for its blend of Moroccan and French culture, which is evident not only in the language but also manifested in the architectural style of the city. The city is not one that is most exciting, especially when compared to its most touristy counterparts. However, it's still nice to spend a day or two exploring a city that has played a great part in Morocco's history. Hassan II mosque is a symbol of the city and it's really a great marvel to see this striking building right next to the sea. This gives it a somewhat majestic character. Not much is in the surrounding area so you're really heading there for the mosque. Further inland, the Medina is a maze of old streets that really attest to the older part of the city. Here you'll find more traditional architecture and a more slow and relaxed feel. Be cautious though as the streets can be confusing. Towards the main center of the city, you'll be treated with more colonial and French architecture, which itself is a nice contrast with the rest of the city. You'll find grand churches and boulevards, offering you a nice blend of culture. Overall a good city to explore but don't expect to be wowed by this city. It does have a good selection of good hotels which are available at often bargain prices, so head over to explore this city! #city #explore #travel #casablanca #morocco

About some tips at the airport in Casablanca tip: 1. Arrive at Casablan Mohammed V Airport at 2 pm and feel the Africa when you get off the plane. The hot temperature, the smooth exit after the plane, even the immigration card does not need to fill out. After getting the baggage, the first thing to change money, because the airport exchange rate is not very good, it is recommended that you put a little enough to take a taxi back to the hotel, there are many places in the city have change. 2. The plane has a place to directly handle the calling card. It is strongly recommended that you do a calling card. I used to rent mobile Wi-Fi online. It is really useless. I basically use my own traffic and pay the phone bill. 3. Take a taxi to the city center for around 300 dirhams and bargain with the driver. Always pay attention to the price before getting on the bus! ! They will never punch cards for tourists, and they have to ask a few people? Does it include luggage? A little tip of the accommodation: Melliber Appart Hotel 500 RMB/day/standard room / At the time of the time, it was fancy The location of this hotel is not too good! ! In fact, Casablan is mainly looking at the Hassan II Maritime Mosque. It is a five-minute walk to the mosque. It is very convenient to turn a corner! ! The apartment can also be cooked and it is clean. When leaving, the clerk also helped us to stop the taxi on the road, and also helped us bargain, haha, in short, the experience is good. For your reference. Hassan II Sea Mosque's tips: Evening mosque is really beautiful in the soft light of the setting sun! ! Even during the Golden Week, there are not many tourists. Tickets are bought two hundred meters from the mosque. Hassan is the most modern mosque in the world. The marble floor in the main hall is heated all the year round. The roof in the summer can be automatically opened for heat dissipation. There is a lift in the temple to reach the top of the Xuanli tower. It is luxurious. One third of the temple is built on the sea. The only temple in Morocco that is open to foreign tourists, you need to take off your shoes when you enter the temple, you need to buy tickets inside the tour, and sell at 10 o'clock in the morning. Visit time: winter Saturday to Thursday 09

The yearning for Morocco stems from the yearning for the Sahara. When I really came to this distant North African country, the desert that was endowed with literature and art was left in my mind. My steps went into the streets and lanes of the ancient city without hesitation, and I was eager to read the prosperity and culture of the local market. [The market in the old town of Casablanca] Casablanca, Morocco's largest city, known as the "white city", this is a very "modern" city, but the ancient city of Medina in the city Unlike the open-air market in the old town of Marrakech, there is no such a heavy tourist atmosphere. The local market is more like a small commodity market, but it also incorporates tourist souvenirs.

I fell in love with you watching Casablanca. Casablanca, Hassan II Mosque. Hassan II Mosque, located in the northwest of downtown Casablanca, Morocco, is a very old and extremely beautiful building. The horse-shaped arch is one of the greatest features of this building, which is presented in many ancient buildings in Morocco. The whole building is made of white marble, green glazed tiles and various shapes of copper ornaments, colorful marbles and mosaics, and the Arabs' favorite geometric figures on the four walls make it look like a work of art.

Country: Morocco Currency: Moroccan Dirham City: Casablanca Miami Promenade Visit: Free. Going to the Miami Promenade, I took photos of many locals and liked to get in touch with the life of an unfamiliar city and feel some stories. This is the most beautiful place in Casablanca. You can listen to the sound of the shore stone, or you can wait for a perfect sunset in the Atlantic. At the end of the Promenade des Anglais, there is a cafe called "Miami", which is also the origin of the name of the Promenade. Find a time, meet a small partner, taste the mellowness of a cup of coffee. The seaside promenade at night is parked with a lot of heavy locomotives, away from the hustle and bustle of the day, and enjoy a quiet and relaxing time.

Moroccan wild calling | Deep into the secret gardens of the Sahara Desert Sometimes, the unforgettable experience comes from an impulsive run away. The call of the wildness awakens the passion of your sleep from the distant North Africa. Stay away from the city, go deep into the desert hinterland, wear stars to wear the moon, camp to watch the stars, return to the state of return to make your travels become lighter. That's right, you have now received an invitation from North Africa: Morocco and its desert are waiting for you at night. The golden sand dunes of Sahara are soaring and undulating. Occasionally there are palm trees next to the oasis, and there will be some Berber villages nearby. The village Merzouga is the entrance to the Sahara, where desert tents are concentrated and situated between the dunes. The village is famous for its proximity to the highest Erg Chebbi sand dunes in the Sahara Desert, which is the most beautiful at sunrise and sunset, as the sun dyes the sand dunes red. [What to do in the Erg Chebbi sand dunes] 1Looking at the camel watching the sunset coming to the Sahara, riding the desert boat on the sand dunes, climbing the sun and watching the sunset Out, it is a rare experience. The desert camel, desolate and mysterious, elopes to this point, fearing that it has long since moved away from modern society. If you live in a tent or hotel near the sand dunes of Merzouga, the locals will recommend you to ride a dromedary, and they will take you into the desert. 2Overnight in the desert, look at the Milky Way h the desert is so big and uninhabited, can you want to roll it anywhere? In theory, it is ok. After all, not many people have the experience of spending a few nights in the desert. However, after all, the desert is in a difficult condition. You can roll for a few hours, and you still want to find a better place to roll one night. The campsite is also concentrated in the vicinity of Merzouga. Most of them are mainly tents for two people. I want to do this, but there is no soundproofing.

Fortunately, I met the local resident photographer kiri at the inn, and then met the local tourist catering giant Yummy under the recommendation of kiri. is really wonderful, kiri said that there are very few Chinese people in the hotel we stayed in, just when we went out; and the usual Yummy rest day is to bring two children, today is just right. The two children went to his French husband's house. So we only had a tea appointment at this private museum, and the journey was really amazing!

The Hassan II Mosque is located in the northwestern part of the city of Casablanca in the Kingdom of Morocco, at the western end of the Islamic world. The construction of the mosque has a direct relationship with the late King Hassan II. Construction started in August 1987, costing more than 500 million US dollars and covering an area of 9 hectares. One-third of the area is built on the sea to commemorate the Moroccan Arab ancestors from the sea. The entire mosque can accommodate 100,000 people at the same time. It is the third largest mosque in the world, behind the Mecca and Medina mosques in Saudi Arabia.

Casablanca The Hassan II Mosque is the third largest mosque in the Islamic world and the most modern mosque in the world. It was built to commemorate the 60th birthday of the former king and is the only mosque open to foreigners in Morocco. The large buildings are built on the sea, towering square towers, majestic palaces, arched round doors, connected corridors, open squares, and Arabic motifs in beige and green. All show the grandeur of Islam. Standing on the square, you can see the sea, and you can sit on the seawall and get close to the roaring Atlantic Ocean to experience the thrill of the surfers. Inadvertently looking, the beach is full of a couple, in the shadow of the morning sun, it is particularly beautiful. In this conservative country, love and religion can also be so interesting. The various carvings and green Marseille patterns in the interior are exquisite and can be described as exquisite. Since idolatry is forbidden, there are no portraits inside and outside the mosque. Because of this, its carvings and mosaic patterns are also beautiful because of their speciality. I have always liked this flamboyant color and pattern, which is one of the places where Islamic civilization attracts me.

I first gave everyone the basic popularity of the Hassan II Mosque. It was built in 1987. At that time, it cost more than 500 million US dollars. For Morocco at that time, it was poured out. The funds were mainly donated by people at home and abroad because of high morality. The beloved king had a dream, saying that Allah gave him the truth: God's throne should be built on the water, so the fundraising began to be established. The mosque can accommodate 100,000 people to pray. It is the third-largest mosque in the world, in Saudi Arabia. After the Arab Mecca and the Medina mosque. The Hassan II mosque opens its doors to Muslims all over the world. However, non-Muslims only have VIPs and special permission to enter the main hall. Muslims from all countries can enter at any time. Before entering the main hall, the guards will ask if they are Muslims. You can't get in without the Quran. The uniqueness of the Hassan II mosque is that one-third of its area is built on the sea to commemorate the Moroccan Arab ancestors from the sea.
