Romantic Casablanca, bustling Marrakesh and alternative Tangier tend to overshadow Morocco's capital when it comes to tourism. The greater Rabat area had a tenth of Marrakesh's hotel stays in 2025. Why visitors skip over this city is beyond me. Far from just an administrative capital, it is a city where an ancient past blends with a vision for a prosperous future. It is a city full of surprises, where ancient traditions have a dialogue with modernity.
