After visiting the main landmarks in Rabat it was nice to see a place outside of the city. We enjoyed walking around the ruins. Definitely a must do if you visit Rabat.

Our second stopping point on our tour to Rabat. The builings and ruins are really interesting. Our only problem was that we were only allowed about 20 minutes to visit.

Chellah's Roman relics where you see the remnants of Sala Colonia, the Roman port that was abandoned in 1154. Lots of stork nests in the towers!

a bit off the beaten path, this place has great scenic vistas and is full of storks- entrance fee is about 1$ and it's a beautiful place for a stroll- go late in the day to avoid tourist buses

While the Roman ruins are not spectacular, the setting is very, very nice. The mating cackling of the storks (in Spring) are worth the visit.

Extensive ruins set on a hillside, families and groups of friends enjoying the walks through the grassy stone walls, a garden with fruit trees, a large colony of storks nesting on tops of pillars
