Next stop: Hassan II Mosque 📍

The Hassan II Mosque is Casablanca’s crown jewel and one of the most impressive religious monuments in the world. Rising dramatically from the Atlantic shoreline, it’s a masterpiece of Moroccan craftsmanship and one of the few mosques in the country open to non-Muslim visitors. Highlights you shouldn’t miss: 🏛 Majestic scale: one of the largest mosques in the world, accommodating up to 100,000 worshippers. 🌊 Oceanfront setting: built partly over the water, symbolizing harmony between land and sea. 🕌 Towering minaret: at 210 meters, it’s the tallest minaret in the world. 🎨 Exquisite details: marble floors, cedar wood ceilings, mosaics, and hand-carved stonework. 💡 Modern features: a retractable roof, heated floors, and laser lights that point toward Mecca. Visiting the Hassan II Mosque is both humbling and awe-inspiring, offering a chance to appreciate Morocco’s spiritual heart and architectural brilliance in one unforgettable experience. #morocco #mosque #thingstodo
