It is also the largest city in the Maghreb, as well as one of the largest and most important cities in Africa, both economically and demographically.

Hassan II Mosque

Completed in 1993 and located on a platform overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, the iconic Hassan II Mosque is the second-largest mosque in the world, and one of few open to non-Muslims. The mosque, which can accommodate up to 25,000 worshipers, offers Muslims the chance to pray on a glass floor, giving the unique feeling of praying directly over the sea. Everyone is welcomed to admire the beautiful piece of architecture at any time from the spacious courtyard, which alone can accommodate a further 80,000 people.

Art Deco Buildings

At a certain time of history, Morocco was a French colony. Therefore, Casablanca has preserved an architectural heritage from the colonial times in the 30s. The Art Deco Buildings are dominating the center of the city, so a walk is recommended to see how beautiful some buildings are! Start from The United Nations Square and walk towards Mohammed V Street.

Habous

Habous is a neighborhood built by the French around the 30s to create a new Medina. It looks like the traditional old Moroccan towns with some extras: larger streets and modern facilities. Moreover, it is home to various traditional markets and the Royal Palace worth checking out while walking around.

La Corniche

Located in the same region as Hassan II Mosque, La Corniche is full of entertainment looking over the Atlantic Ocean. Go on a pleasant walk or even a run in the morning to experience a fresh weather followed by a swim as it gets warmer at Ain Diab Beach, and a brunch at one of the cafes in the street.

SKY28, Twin Center

The tallest buildings in Morocco are the Twin Towers in Maarif. One tower is a luxurious 5 star hotel, and the other is full of business offices. At the last floor of the hotel, you can take a drink with an amazing view over the whole city. The cafe is named Sky 28. The best time to visit is during the rush hour around 6pm to witness the traffic jam from above, and the lights of the city on.

The Old Medina

Unlike in many Moroccan cities, the old part of town is surprisingly easy to pass by in Casablanca. There is the temptation to head straight out to the seaside to visit Hassan II Mosque and beach area, however discovering the charm hidden behind the old city walls is a must on any trip to a Moroccan city. Experiencing the pace of daily life, with children running in the narrow streets and men smoking in cafés, you can find the little sights buried in the medina, such as the Berber Mosque.

Parc de la Ligue Arabe

South of Place Mohammed V lies the Parc de la Ligue Arabe. Designed in 1918, this park, complete with a palm- tree-lined avenue, is Casablanca’s biggest open space. Perfect for games and walks, and offering a choice of small cafés, the Arab League Park gives guests the chance to relax and admire the flora of Africa, and even venture to the Cathédrale de Sacré Coeur, the neglected former cathedral on the edge of the park, hinting to the Art Deco past of Casablanca.

Place Mohammed V A visit to the administrative hub of Casablanca, the Place Mohammed V is a chance to experience first-hand the work of architect Henri Prost.

In addition to this monumental statue, the square features a grand fountain dating back to 1976.

Villa des Arts

Part of the ONA Foundation, one of Morocco’s primary cultural foundations, the Villa des Arts is one of the largest museums in Casablanca, and is situated near the Parc de la Ligue Arabe. The Villa des Arts promotes contemporary arts in a framework of Moroccan culture and heritage and features around 800 artworks permanently, as well as temporary expositions of international and contemporary artists. It even the building itself is a beautiful piece of Art Deco architecture, dating back to 1934.

Royal Palace

Located near New Medina, is yet another one of the King’s palaces. The King has a palace in almost every city just in case of a royal visit. The King’s Palace in Casablanca is just as grand as the rest of them, with its enormous open square at the front, a surplus of guards, and a grand exterior which anyone can enjoy.

以阿姆河流域为核心诞生的琐罗亚斯德教 在伊朗西部,米底人和埃兰人曾雄踞一方,创造了灿烂的古文明,但真正使伊朗文明源远流长的要归功于

琐罗亚斯德教(拜火教)文化传统。公元前 11 世纪,琐罗亚斯德教在伊朗东部的阿姆河流域诞生,随后向西传

播至米底王国,并成为了波斯阿契美尼德王朝的国教。琐罗亚斯德教最重要的经书《阿维斯塔》就是由伊朗东

部方言著成。

公元前 330 年,大流士三世在亚历山大军队的追击下逃亡至阿姆河畔,强大的波斯帝国落入希腊人手中 80

余年。

公元前 3 世纪中期,阿姆河之南的帕提亚行省宣布独立,脱离希腊人的塞琉古王朝的统治。几经征战,波

斯历史进入帕提亚王朝,即中国古籍中的安息王朝,当时丝绸之路的另一端。伊朗文明再次兴于阿姆河流域。

公元 651 年,历史重演。萨珊王朝末代君主在阿拉伯军队追击下,逃到中亚阿姆河附近的木鹿城(今土库

曼斯坦境内)。波斯帝国再次亡于阿姆河畔。
