A country of Islamic tradition, Morocco is a land of contrasts, colours, elevations and varying landscapes. Its cities have a blend of influences coming from the West and the Rif and Atlas Mountains. In the capital, Rabat, one can visit the magnificent Royal Palace. In Casablanca, the historical Medina and the Hassan II Mosque are two unmissable stops. Yet despite the many films that were set in the aforementioned city, Tangier attracts an even larger amount of tourists due to its enigmatic aura. For beach lovers, Tetouan and Agadir are the best destinations.
