After a nice drive along the coast, we got to Casablanca, the city made famous by Bogart and Bergman. In the largest Moroccan city, we were expecting to see the best cars and the tallest buildings in Morroco, and it didn't disappoint us!
More, following the crowd, we just headed to one of the most impressive buildings and people gatherings we have ever seen. It was almost the end of Ramadan and a huge crowd was moving to the mosque.
The mosque (Hassan II) is the biggest in Morocco and its minaret is the tallest in the world. More, it was built right beside the ocean, following the words of Hassan II: I want to build this mosque on the water, because God's throne is on the water. Therefore, the faithful who go there to pray, to praise the Creator on firm soil, can contemplate God's sky and ocean. To make it even more dramatic, the mosque and the square were full of people celebrating Ramadan and the mist coming from the ocean created a very special aura.
Definitely a place to visit!
