Rabat
- Rabat: an introduction to Morocco’s archaeology
This educational activity starts with objects, not ruins. At the Museum of History and Civilizations, participants choose a small number of materials—bronze, ceramic, marble, coin or inscription—and record what each can and cannot reveal. A second, separately ticketed Chellah visit then asks how excavated fragments, architecture and landscape change the interpretation.
- Rabat
Connect Rabat’s Kasbah, medina, monumental sites and museums into readable days, then explore Sale across the Bouregreg. Choose neighbourhoods, access and onward travel before filling the schedule.
- Kaak Rbati
Kaak Rbati is Rabat’s almond-centered interpretation of the kaak family. Culinary references distinguish it from dry anise rings by its almond-paste component, which can appear as a filling or define the biscuit’s richer texture. A careful maker balances ground almond, sugar and floral or citrus perfume against a thin wheat shell, then shapes a ring or another attributed Rabati form and bakes it without drying the center.
- Jazz au Chellah: music and cultural exchange in Rabat
