Rabat – Travel website Tripadvisor listed Morocco’s metropole of Casablanca among its Travelers’ Choice Best of the Best Destinations Awards.
Tripadvisors has placed Morocco’s Casablanca as the 23rd Best of the Best destinations, out of 25 cities featured in this year’s travelers’ choice list.
The travel website highlighted Casablanca’s assets as “the most cosmopolitan and Western-feeling city in Morocco.”
“Casa (as locals call it) isn’t too touristy, but it’s the most cosmopolitan and Western-feeling city in Morocco,” Tripadvisor wrote while advising tourists to visit the King Hassan II Mosque and the city’s old medina.
“Today Casablanca is a large, modern city, but the former French colonial post still allows myriad movie moments for those who want to revisit love in the medina and Old City,” the magazine added.
Moroccan tourist destinations, including Fez, Marrakech, Tangier, and Casablanca are frequently recognized as must-visit places by renowned magazines and publications.
