A contemporary building, the mosque Lalla Soukaïna deserves better the title of the mosque of Rabat. Snuggled up in a quiet lane of Souissi, the smart district of Rabat, that of Embassies and residence of the high dignitaries of the Kingdom.

In front of Palais Royal built in 1864 on the ruins of the former Palace of the XVIIIth century, is the elegant royal mosque Ahl Fas. During the religious or traditional feasts, it is popular that the King crosses Méchouar in coach or on horseback, to go to the mosque.
