| The Oudaya Kasbah of Rabat, the White Imperial City and the administrative capital of the country. I'd imagine this to be hard to take during battles in medieval times. A kasbah is a town or city that is fortified and walled in. My earlier concept of a kasbah was a discotheque cos' of the then "Kasbah" disco in the Mandarin Hotel of the 70's. |

| Lunched here with nice seafood and sea breeze. |

| Restaurant within the kasbah. |
 |
| Streets here are fairly wide compared to those of other medinas we visited. They are always clean. |
 |
| Hotels side by side -which one can offer the better rate? |
 |
| Moroccan architecture with elaborate wood carvings and lovely and lively mosaics which we see lots more of later.. |
 |
| Rabat Royal Palace gates with beautiful carvings. Altogether, there are 17 palaces in Morocco, with two exclusively for Saudi Royalty and another for the Moroccan princes |
 |

| Blue is a favourite Moroccan colour. This colour is found on walls, doors, etc. |
