Assounna Mosque, Rabat, Morocco, Africa
Rabat is the capital and third largest city of the Kingdom of Morocco with a population of approximately 650,000 (2010). It is also the capital of the Rabat-Salé-Zemmour-Zaer region. The city is located on the Atlantic Ocean at the mouth of the river Bou Regreg. On the facing shore of the river lies Salé, the city's main commuter town. Together with Temara the cities account for a combined metropolitan population of 1.8 million. Silting problems have diminished the Rabat's role as a port; however, Rabat and Salé still maintain important textile, food processing and construction industries. In addition, tourism and the presence of all foreign embassies in Morocco serve to make Rabat one of the most important cities in the country.
Hassan Mosque - Rabat, Morocco
David's Been Here is in Rabat, Morocco, touring one of the most interesting sites in the country, the Hassan Mosque. Construction started on this mosque in 1191, but after Sultan Yacoub al-Mansour, the mastermind behind the construction died in 1199, the building stopped. What remains today is the unfinished minaret of what was supposed to be the largest mosque in the world. Even unfinished, the mosque is still an amazing site to visit. Find more information about the Hassan Mosque in the David's Been Here Guide to Morocco, now available for your Kindle as well.

Rabat Vacation Travel Video Guide
Travel video about destination Rabat in Morocco.
Rabat is the capital of Morocco and also its royal seat of power. The main residence of King Mohammed the Sixth is a fascinating modern metropolis. Along with its monumental works of art, it is the fourth oldest of the Makhzen cities, is also one of Morocco's most important.
Cafés and workshops reflect daily life and most of the city's souks are divided into specialized areas with items such as leather goods, blankets and carpets for sale and with a little haggling, it's possible to purchase quality handicrafts at a very modest price!
The Kasbah des Udayas was built by Yaqub al-Mansur in the 12th century. It is located at Rabat's most elevated point and is like a village within the city. The eight metre high wall once protected the Kasbah and its inhabitants. The fortress is inhabited to the present day.
Barred windows create an Andalusian ambience. The Kasbah is one of the most popular though most expensive addresses in Rabat.
Throughout the centuries, the Moroccan coast was dominated by pirates but the might of European colonialists put an end to their dubious activities.
The mausoleum of Mohammed V was built in 1967 and the tomb complex contains a mosque, a mausoleum and a small memorial that contains images of the king.
At the end of the 12th century, Yaqub al-Mansur constructed the largest mosque in the Maghreb. At a height of 60 metres, its minaret was taller than any other in North Africa. Four hundred columns support the prayer room and it has 14 gates.
Rabat is a fascinating capital city and royal residence - an exotic world that lies between both occident and orient.

Christians and Muslims in Rabat look ahead to Pope visit
(28 Mar 2019) The Cathedral Saint Pierre of Rabat is full. The mass being led by Rabat Archbishop Cristobal Lopez Romero, is the last one to take place at the Cathedral before Pope Francis arrives in the Kingdom of Morocco on Sunday.
Many Christians, mostly coming from sub-saharan countries, came to participate in it.
Romero said the visit is important because the Christian community is very small in Morocco, we do need, more than others, to receive the visit of our Father
There are no official statistics of how many Christians live in Morocco, but the Church says it's about 30,000 people. There are two dioceses, one in Rabat and one in Tangiers.
Christians living in the majority-Muslim country say the visit will bring joy and support.
We feel that we are not alone any more, we are not alone, we are not put aside, we are not abandoned. Because even if we live among our brothers, this gesture (Pope Francis' visit) is comforting us, said 26 year-old Alexis Camara.
In the nearby As-Sounna mosque in the city center, Rabat resident Ali Bakouri explained that his visit will have benefits because he will create a kind of closeness and openness between Islam and Christianity.
Moroccan Imam Youssef Aknoui said the visit will reinforce the principle of dialogue already observed by Moroccans, adding when we speak of dialogue we find that Moroccans' commitment to Islam and Quran teaches them to practice dialogue every day.
Pope Francis' visit follows a trip to the United Arab Emirates where he signed a landmark fraternity document with a leading Sunni imam and sought to encourage moderate Islam and interfaith ties.
The visit will help create further dialogue between Muslims and Catholics, according to the Rabat diocese.
During his visit, Francis will meet with King Mohammed VI as well as the country's priests and religious sisters and celebrate Mass for the Catholic community.
He will meet with migrants in Morocco and visit a training institute for imams that seeks to be a bulwark against Islamic extremism.
Francis is also planning a visit to a social center outside Rabat.
Pope Francis will visit Morocco on March 30-31.

Hassan Tower, Rabat, Morocco, Africa
Hassan Tower or Tour Hassan is the minaret of an incomplete mosque in Rabat, Morocco. Begun in 1195, the tower was intended to be the largest minaret in the world along with the mosque, also intended to be the world's largest. In 1199, Sultan Yacoub al-Mansour died and construction on the mosque stopped. The tower reached 44 m (140 ft), about half of its intended 86 m (260 ft) height. The rest of the mosque was also left incomplete, with only the beginnings of several walls and 200 columns being constructed. The tower, made of red sandstone, along with the remains of the mosque and the modern Mausoleum of Mohammed V, forms an important historical and tourist complex in Rabat. Instead of stairs, the tower is ascended by ramps. The minaret's ramps would have allowed the muezzin to ride a horse to the top of the tower to issue the call to prayer. Founder of the Hassan Tower, Yaqub al-Mansur, was a member of the Almohad Dynasty, a Berber, Muslim empire in West Africa and Iberia. The tower, according to tradition, was designed by an architect named Jabir who used a similar design plan for Hassan's sister tower, the Giralda in Seville, modern day Spain. Both of the towers were modeled on the minaret of another one of Jabir's designs, the Koutoubia Mosque in Marrakech. Renaissance Spaniards later added a western style top to the Giralda, which was converted from a minaret to a bell tower for the Seville Cathedral after the Reconquista. Yaqub al-Mansur conducted other works in Rabat, most notably reconstruction of the Kasbah of the Udayas and conversion of the Chellah ancient complex, built by the Phoenicians and Romans, to a necropolis usage. This site was added to the UNESCO World Heritage Tentative List on July 1, 1995 in the Cultural category. It was granted World Heritage Status in 2012.
