Rabat is the current capital of modern Morocco and has much to thank the French for, its well designed boulevards are a perfect setting for the culture and grandeur a state capital should offer. The Royal Palace, the unfinished mosque, the necropolis at Chellah and the grand mauosoleum of King Mohammed V (and now also the late Hassan II) are a perfect combination of sights for the visitor.
Rabat has a human scale and even its medina and souk are laid back and laid out in grid pattern. Rabat is a great day out if you are staying nearby as it has excellent train connections from Casablanca, Fes, Meknes and Marrakech.

The frenetic activity down by the river and the peace of the Kasbah make up the hidden gem of Morocco - do not miss.
