Grand Casablanca

Travel Guide

The Hassan II Grand Mosque is the largest mosque in Morocco and Africa and the 7th largest in the world. The mosque stands on a prominent piece of land that rises up on the shore of the Atlantic and provides visitors with the most spectacular views of the ocean. It was decided by King Hassan II that the mosque should be built on this location because of a verse found in the Qur'an, which says that God's throne was built over the water.  #beach #Waterlust

The second largest mosque in the world justifies the trip to Casablanca. It's a beautiful & peaceful place, built over the water, and is one of the few mosques non-Muslims can visit (on a guided tour)
A place of serenity and worship.

Where to stay in Grand Casablanca

One of first things I saw in Casablanca was this Art Deco landmark - the Rialto Cinema. Josephine Baker and Edith Piaf both performed here.  It is still in operation

Ain-Diab or Aïn Diab (Arabic: عين الدئاب, "fountain of the wolves") is a district of Casablanca, the largest city in Morocco, situated next to the beach of the same name and extending from the marabout of Sidi Abderrahman to Anfa , the western part of the center.

The beach of Aïn Diab, which is the northern boundary of the district, extends for about two kilometers between two rocky cables: the Corniche to the northeast and the islet of Sidi Abderrahman. To the south the limits of the district are the avenues of Anfa and the road of Azamor.

The neighborhood has two distinct parts topographically: the hill of Anfa, where there are blocks of luxury villas surrounded by forested parks, and the depression of Sindibad
