It has capacity to host twenty five thousands of devotee in its hall and almost eighty thousands of worshippers will be easily accommodate at its courtyard. All most eight hundred million dollars have spent to build this masterpiece and it is considered as the second largest religious building in the entire planet. Most of the essential part of this mosque including minaret, royal doors and dome, are made from marble. Its breath-taking view is truly unforgettable in life.

Place des Nations Unies (Pass by)
Imagined as the commercial heart and the communication hub of the city. In addition, with the desire to revitalise public spaces, the Place des Nations Unies is regularly the theatre Place des Nations Unies (Formerly Place de France). Designed as the airlock of the city, it is the "vestibule" of the administrative place, this one being regarded as the "living room" of the city. Planted from its origin with ficus (Ficus benjamina) in order to make travellers' expectations more comfortable thanks to a set of shadows, the square was redesigned in 2012 to accommodate the first tram line. This is how rows of Phoenix canariensis palm trees embellish the site, alongside the renovation of the floors, which consists of a clever alternation of concrete and old paves of cultural, improvised or institutional events.
Square of Mohammed V (Pass by)
Built in 1920s and designed by the French Architect Henri Prost, formerly the Administrative Place or the Grand Place, it is largely inspired by the place Stanislas in Nancy, as evidenced by the layout of the buildings and their location, as well as the esplanades planted with ficus. Similarly, the Royal Palace in Paris greatly influenced its design, as demonstrated by the use of the galleries, the distancing of the facades by alignments of trees, the nesting of the square and the rectangle in the composition of the space, and the desire to make it a living place with the installation of cafes and restaurants. In 1925, while he was on a city tour for engineers and writers at the occasion of the inauguration of the rail line connecting Rabat to Casablanca, Hubert Lyautey presents the Administrative square in these terms: "All that was camps ... here, I wanted to do something like the garden of the Palais - Royal ... a flowered square, framed by long symmetrical buildings.
Mahkama Du Pacha
  • 30m
  • Admission ticket not included
The most important building in the nablus quarter, built between 1941 and 1952, signed Auguste Cadet, this big court a veritable masterpiece of Moroccan Artisanat. The Mahkama formerly housed the reception halls of the Pasha of Casablanca, as well as Muslim courthouse covering a space of 6200 sum, including 6 Halls of 64 big salons, offices and several galleries. The building is actually used as a governmental administration.
Mosquee Moulay Youssef (Pass by)
Built by the Sultan Moulay Youssef on 1923, it is the first Mosque erected by Auguste Cadet. The Minaret, is the Almouhade style, and its similar to Al Koutoubia Mosque in Marrakech and the Seville's Giralda.
Quartier Habous
  • 1h
  • Admission ticket not included
Built by the French colonial and designed by the French architect and urban planner "Henri Prost" at the beginning of the 20th century, after the arrival of the Protectorat. The Quartier Habous; is a mixture of the French architecture with the Moroccan Details. It was designed to fit the Muslims lifestyle, this is why we find inside Mosques, madrassas, markets, public bakery, Kissarias (gallery of Shops), and Moroccan houses where the style was picked from Fez and Marrakech architecture.
