A low-slung tuk‑tuk hums along the Bou Regreg, Atlantic breeze pushing against your face as the city’s ochre walls slide past. Drivers weave through avenues lined with jacaranda and palm, pausing where the light flatters a minaret or the curve of a fortress gate. This is Rabat at a human pace—compact, coastal and quietly regal.

Rabat became Morocco’s capital in the early 20th century under French rule, layering modern administrative boulevards over older Almohad and Roman sites such as Chellah.
Conservation
Chellah and coastal zones are protected for their archaeological and bird-nesting value; visitors should stick to paths, avoid feeding wildlife and follow guide instructions to limit erosion and disturbance.
