Rabat condenses centuries of Moroccan history into a small area. At Chellah, you walk among the remains of the Roman city of Sala Colonia before discovering the Merinid necropolis and gardens, a kingdom of storks. The Hassan Tower attests to 12th-century Almohad ambition, while the Kasbah of the Udayas distils the Andalusian elegance inherited from Spain's Moriscos. For contemporary art, the Mohammed VI Museum completes this panorama unique in Morocco.

Chellah, Oudayas and the heritage of a thousand-year capital

Rabat layers civilisations over more than two thousand years. The Chellah site, the most evocative, sets a Roman town (Sala Colonia) beside a 14th-century Merinid necropolis, all wrapped in gardens where hundreds of storks nest. The Almohad Kasbah of the Udayas holds a museum and a peaceful Andalusian garden. The Hassan Tower and Mohammed V Mausoleum complex shows Moroccan art at its peak. A guided tour links these UNESCO-listed sites and decodes the history of the dynasties that shaped Morocco.

Should I book in advance in Rabat?

Yes, especially in high season: booking online secures your spot and the price, and most activities are subject to the cancellation terms shown on the partner page. Instant confirmation and a mobile ticket.

Do I need a guide for the medina?

It's not mandatory, but an official guide keeps fake guides away, saves time and unlocks little-known sites and workshops.
