Rabat 是摩洛哥的首都, 雖然它不是我們重點出擊的地方,
但它卻有其獨特和吸引之處, 令人不得不抽空走一趟,
親身感受和了解一下它們獨有的地標建設,
與其它城市相比, 佢絕對有大都會大城市的感覺.
( Le Tour Hassan )哈珊紀念塔是 Rabat 的著名景點,
兩則入口均有皇家騎兵駐守,
極具氣勢. 由於這裡曾經歷地震的洗禮, 故原本60公尺高的紀念塔,
現在就只剩餘數十根高矮不一的基柱供遊人觀賞, 細味.
雖然如此, 但遊客仍可藉此餘物…
輕易聯想起當時建築的偉大和那壯觀的場面.
與( Le Tour Hassan )紀念塔遙遙相對的, 是那個用大理石精工堆砌的
( Mausoleum of Mohammed V )穆罕默德五世陵墓.
可能是皇室陵墓關係, 建築的風格…
完完全全可表現出摩洛哥人的傳統文化.
Chellah (切拉城堡)
Abandoned, crumbling and overgrown,
the ancirnt Roman city of Sala Colonia and
the Merenid necropolis of Chellah are among Rabat 's
most peaceful and evocative sights.
(quoted from Lonely Planet)
Kasbah Des Oudaias
The kasbah occupies the oldest part of the city,
the site of the original ribat,
and commands powerful views over the river and
ocean from its cliff-top perch.
The kasbah is predominately residential and the narrow streets
are lined with whitewashed houses- most of which
were built by Muslim refugees from Spain .
The most dramatic entry to kasbah is through the enormous
Almohad gate of Bab Oudaia.
