Casablanca Essentials

Casablanca blends French colonial urban planning with traditional Moroccan heritage. The city’s landscape is dominated by the Hassan II Mosque, featuring a 210-meter minaret overlooking the Atlantic. Architectural highlights include the Mauresque-Art Deco buildings of the city center and the deconsecrated Sacré-Cœur Cathedral. From the 19th-century alleys of the Old Medina to the cinematic recreation of Rick’s Cafe and the modern expanse of the Morocco Mall, these sites represent the city's transition from a historic port to a commercial metropolis.
