Rabat, like a tourist
... was an entryway to the Royal palace of the King of Morocco.
I finally found my way to the Chellah and it was just as my guidebook had explained it - ancient Roman ruins with a interesting mosque and a well fortified wall overlooking the river.

We also stayed in a hostel for about 6 euro per night, ...
