Our Casablanca Jewish Heritage trip begins with a stop at some of the most well-known synagogues in the city, such as Beth El, Eim Habanim, and David Hamelekh, which are all situated in the Corniche neighborhood along the shore. Even though there are no longer any Jews living in Casablanca’s historic Jewish Mellah, it’s still an excellent spot to go and check out the kosher butchers. The Jewish cemetery in the mellah is where we will make our next trip. Here, we will see lovely white stone markers with inscriptions in French, Hebrew, and Spanish.
The Museum of Moroccan Judaism, founded by the Casablanca Jewish Community in 1997, is home to a wide variety of religious, anthropological, and artistic items that highlight Jewish daily life.

If there is time, we’ll take you to the charming Casablanca Jewish Club. In the city, there are numerous conventional kosher bakeries and eateries, like Cercle de L’Alliance and La Truffe. We will depart from Casablanca and go to Rabat, the Moroccan capital.
No visit to Morocco is complete without spending a few hours in the country’s capital, Rabat.

The Royal Palace and the Mausoleum of Mohammed V are only two of the fascinating historical sites that Rabat has to offer. We will find numerous authentic Moroccan trinkets in the old medina.

The Medina, the Kasbah from the 15th century, and Utta El Hamam Square are the three most visited sights in the city. The city’s medina is a great place for leisurely strolls and offers the chance to purchase genuine, traditional mementos. The Grand Mosque of Chefchaouen is one of the most significant structures in the town and is popular with tourists due to its charming octagonal minaret.

Morocco’s economy is heavily reliant on tourism to meet its financial needs. To put it another way, the Moroccan government wants tourists to feel comfortable and secure while spending their holiday and money in the country.
As a result, it devotes a significant amount of resources, particularly human resources, to ensure that all tourists are secure while in Morocco; this includes tourist police and highly qualified guides who have been accredited by the government after undergoing training.
In terms of extremism and crime rates, we can state that the occurrence of such crimes is similar to that of many European countries, as evidenced by several statistics: low and uncommon.
You could enjoy traveling on your own once you’ve learned your way around and been acquainted with the local culture. You’ll be OK as long as you’re comfortable with it and stay away from the shady areas.
