Parc de la Ligue Arabe

Teave

Kiired faktid: When Casablanca runs out of shade, locals flock to this 30-hectare green lung where some eucalyptus trees top 40 meters. The central duck pond has hosted generations of waterfowl since the 1930s, and the 1970s open-air theater still stages free summer concerts.

Esiletõstmised: Wander behind the palm rows to find a crescent-shaped open-air theater from the 1930s where local musicians still rehearse at dusk. Catch an oud performance and you'll hear the notes echo off the surrounding stone walls, a sound that has carried across the lawn for nearly a century.
