Itinerary
Hassan Tower (Tour Hassan)
Hassan Tower is a prominent historical landmark in Rabat, Morocco, and a testament to the architectural ambition of the Almohad dynasty. Commissioned in 1195 by Sultan Yacoub al-Mansour, the tower was intended to be the minaret of the world's largest mosque. However, construction ceased after the sultan's death in 1199, leaving the tower incomplete at 44 meters—about half of its planned height .
Mausoleum of Mohammed V (Mausolée de Mohammed V)
The Mausoleum of Mohammed V in Rabat is a revered monument honoring King Mohammed V, who led Morocco to independence in 1956. Located beside the historic Hassan Tower, this white marble structure features a green-tiled pyramidal roof, symbolizing the Alaouite dynasty. Inside, visitors can admire intricate Moroccan craftsmanship, including zellige tilework, carved cedar wood, and a grand dome. The mausoleum houses the tombs of King Mohammed V and his sons, King Hassan II and Prince Moulay Abdallah, making it a significant site of national remembrance.
Royal Palace of Rabat
The Royal Palace of Rabat, known as Dar al-Makhzen, is the official residence of the King of Morocco. Located in the heart of the capital, it is a grand complex surrounded by lush gardens, administrative buildings, and a large open square guarded by ceremonial troops. Though the interior is not open to the public, visitors can admire its impressive gates and traditional Moroccan architecture from the outside. The palace reflects the country's blend of historical legacy and modern governance.
