The glaring blue of the sea and the sky is upon the city. Rabat was built upon the banks of the Bou Regreg estuary. The city extends it welcoming arms to tourists with an array of flower bedecked promenades, all within audible range of the ocean. The structures remain to this day a witness to the Imperial city's proud history and heritage. Islamic arts rub elbows with the contemporary, in the streets that make up Oudaïas Kasbah. The outcome of the fusion of the old and new is a scintillating mosaic that draws onlookers to play the game of bartering and buying.

The mysterious aura that is created by the Garden of Rabat-Salé adorned and planted with exotic blooms is truly breathtaking. Salé epitomizes the nature of a lot of quaint Islamic towns with its quiet streets, sun-bathed squares and lively markets, in the meantime the restaurants and international stores already built is also a manifestation of Rabat's outlook towards the future.

Being the capital of Morocco has made Rabat's colorful past become entwined with magnificence. During Roman times the Chellah Necropolis was built over the town once occupied by the Merinids. Leaving their mark are a couple of invaders like the   Almohads, Berbers, Merinids, Romans, and of course the most recent the French.
