Being the beating heart of Morocco's capital, the old medina will shower you with its charm. Embeded in the hustle and bustle of a modern city, its cultural aspect emerges from its narrow streets, fortified walls, Kasbah and souks. A culture that covers all the architectural details, the daily lives of the inhabitants and the arts and crafts. Soak up in the history of the Kasbah of the Oudayas, city of the Andalusians expelled from Spain by Philip III, with its bluish streets similar to those of Chefchaouen. Also visit its Souika street and its Souk Sebbate for a total immersion in traditional craftsmanship with the scent of leather. The rue des Consuls » avenue shows a different setting: a marvelous painting of multicoloured carpets that symbolizes the city's wealth of craftsmanship. Don’t forget to visit the ruins of Chellah but also the Hassan tower.
