Just a 15-minute walk from downtown Rabat, on the left bank of the Bouregreg River, discover one of the region’s most iconic architectural gems: the Kasbah of the Udayas. This majestic 12th-century fortress, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, instantly transports you to a world where history and beauty meet.

An exceptional heritage

Step through the imposing Almohad gate and let yourself be enchanted by this spectacular site. The kasbah is home to real treasures: an enchanting Andalusian garden, a fascinating museum, elegant riads, and ancient mosques steeped in history. Every stone and every corner tells a story of Rabat’s glorious past.

Unforgettable experiences

Don’t miss the legendary Café Maure, accessible after an enchanting stroll through the maze of narrow streets. Make yourself comfortable on the terrace and savor the moment: a fragrant mint tea accompanied by delicious almond cakes, while admiring an exceptional panorama. The view takes in the mouth of the Bouregreg River, the immensity of the Atlantic Ocean, and the historic city of Salé on the other side.
