**🕌 Start at the Hassan II Mosque** The Hassan II Mosque is Casablanca's crown jewel and one of the largest mosques in the world. Guided tours run daily at 9:00, 10:00, 11:00, and 14:00, except during prayer times. Entry costs 130 MAD for adults, and you'll see intricate zellij tilework and the retractable roof. Arrive early to walk the oceanfront esplanade for stunning views of the Atlantic. **🏛️ Explore the Old Medina** Unlike the labyrinthine medinas of Marrakech or Fes, Casablanca's Old Medina is compact and easy to navigate. Wander the narrow streets near Place des Nations Unies for authentic souks selling leather, spices, and textiles. Stop by the Mahkama du Pacha, a former courthouse with ornate Andalusian architecture, though interior access may be limited. It's a great spot for photography without the intense crowds. **🍽️ Eat Like a Local** Head to Rick's Cafe (248 Boulevard Sour Jdid) for a taste of Casablanca's cinematic history, but book weeks ahead for dinner. For authentic street food, try a merguez sandwich from a stall near the Central Market (Marche Central). For a sit-down meal, La Sqala (Boulevard des Almohades) serves traditional Moroccan dishes in a beautiful garden setting, with mains around 120-200 MAD. **🎨 Discover Art Deco Architecture** Casablanca boasts one of the world's finest collections of Art Deco buildings, a legacy of the French colonial period. Take a self-guided walking tour along Boulevard Mohammed V and Avenue Hassan II to see landmarks like the Cinema Rialto and the Wilaya Building. The Abderrahman Slaoui Museum (12 Rue du Parc) offers a curated look at Art Deco objects and paintings, with entry at 50 MAD. **🚋 Getting Around the City** Casablanca's tramway system (Line 1 and Line 2) is efficient and covers major areas like the city center, Ain Diab, and the Hassan II Mosque. A single ticket costs 6 MAD, and you can buy rechargeable cards at stations. Taxis are plentiful but always insist on the meter or agree on a price beforehand. For a scenic ride, take the tram to the beachfront Corniche in Ain Diab. **🌊 Relax at the Corniche** The Corniche is Casablanca's seaside promenade, stretching along the Ain Diab neighborhood. It's perfect for a sunset stroll, with cafes, restaurants, and the occasional street performer. For a swim, head to Lalla Meryem Beach (free public access) or pay 50-100 MAD for a private beach club like Tahiti Beach Club. The area comes alive at night with shisha lounges and live music. **🛍️ Shop at Morocco Mall** Morocco Mall, located on the Corniche (Route de l'Oasis), is one of Africa's largest shopping centers. Beyond international brands, it features an indoor aquarium, an ice skating rink, and a food court with local and global options. It's open daily from 10:00 to 22:00, with extended hours on weekends. For a more local experience, visit the Central Market for fresh seafood and produce. **🌃 Experience Nightlife in Gauthier** The Gauthier neighborhood is Casablanca's nightlife hub, with a mix of chic bars and lounges. Try Le Petit Rocher (13 Rue El Bouhtouri) for craft cocktails in a cozy setting, or Sky 28 at the Kenzi Tower Hotel for panoramic city views. Most venues open around 18:00 and stay lively until late, with a dress code that leans smart-casual. Cover charges are rare, but drinks cost 80-150 MAD.
