Asilah

In the clean, relaxed and artsy town of Asilah on the Atlantic coast

Sometimes I love being a tourist!

Inside the Hassan II mosque in Casablanca

It has a retractable ceiling, heated floor, and most of it was built out over the ocean. It's also one of the few that non-muslims are allowed to enter.

Ancient rock carvings!

In a fellow PCV's site, on a four hour hike up to a pass where there are 2,000 year old rock carvings. (The estimated age of the carvings varies by thousands of years depending upon who you ask.) It's a beautiful area and a great day hike. Ait Boulli
