Travel Opportunities
Casablanca is Morocco's largest city and the
country's main port, which translates into quite
a
few
gritty
and
industrial-looking
neighborhoods. But Casablanca is also the most
cosmopolitan of Morocco's cities, with
nightclubs, fast food chains and high-end
boutiques. Casablanca is often the first stop for
international passengers flying in from afar, and
the city is basically used as a transit point. But
before you dismiss it entirely and quickly move
on to Fes, Rabat or Marrakech, you must stop
to visit the Hassan II Mosque, honestly one of the most beautiful buildings ever built. Casablanca
Voyagers station serves trains to Fes, Marrakech, and Tangier with stops in between and also
there are intercity buses and various private lines that run services to most notable Moroccan
towns.
