O Mausoléu de Mohammed V, situado na esplanada Yacoub al-Mansour em Rabat, é um importante monumento nacional de Marrocos, edifício que abriga os túmulos do rei que liderou a independência do país, Mohammed V, e dos seus filhos, Hassan II e o príncipe Abdallah. Esta obra arquitetónica, projetada pelo arquiteto vietnamita Vo Toan e concluída entre 1961 e 1971, combina tradições artísticas marroquinas e islâmicas, destacando-se pelo exterior em mármore branco e pelo telhado verde, simbolizando a cultura islâmica. A sua entrada é guardada pela Guarda Real, cujos membros, vestidos em trajes cerimoniais e montados a cavalo, não somente oferecem proteção, mas também representam a tradição e a história da monarquia alauita. O complexo, que inclui a Torre Hassan, torna-se um local de peregrinação e visita turística, refletindo a unidade nacional e a reverência pela herança cultural de Marrocos.
The Mausoleum of Mohammed V, located on the Yacoub al-Mansour esplanade in Rabat, is an important national monument in Morocco, a building that houses the tombs of the king who led the country's independence, Mohammed V, and his sons, Hassan II and Prince Abdallah. This architectural work, designed by Vietnamese architect Vo Toan and completed between 1961 and 1971, combines Moroccan and Islamic artistic traditions, standing out for its white marble exterior and green roof, symbolizing Islamic culture. Its entrance is guarded by the Royal Guard, whose members, dressed in ceremonial costumes and mounted on horseback, not only offer protection but also represent the tradition and history of the Alawite monarchy. The complex, which includes the Hassan Tower, has become a place of pilgrimage and tourist attraction, reflecting national unity and reverence for Morocco's cultural heritage.

Thanks to the magic of Google Earth you can now see what the immense Hassan II mosque in Casablanca looks like...from space! North on this image is directly up, so the long shadow cast north-west by the minaret means this image was taken in the late afternoon sometime in the winter months. The "eye" altitude is 4,000 feet and even at that height you can make out the intense attention to detail: the beautiful tiled patterns on the forecourt, the motorized roof panel. Using Google Earth's Measure tool I found that the main hall is three football fields long!
Also in this picture you can see some of Caza's beaches. They are fantastic as well.
As in the Asilah From Space image, I've marked on the map the locations of some of the pictures from the mosque so you can get a clearer idea of the layout of the place.
