Casablanca was made world renowned when the Hollywood movie starring Ingrid Bergman and Humphrey Bogart had their debut last 1942. In essence, Casablanca is really the Capital of Morocco. Stepping unto the cobbled streets of Casablanca, a Briton will appreciate the way of life and immediately feel at home because Casablanca looks more like a southern European city than a Moroccan hub.

During the French era, Tangiers was the major Moroccan seaport, but after they left, Casablanca seems to rise from anonymity and into becoming Maghreb's busiest harbor, even more hectic than the city to which Casablanca was modeled from, Marseilles.

Accommodation
