Grand Mosque Hassan II is hard to miss in Casablanca. Great to use as my GPS when lost in the maze of Downtown.
It boasts the highest minaret in the world (60 stories high) with a laser to Mecca. It is grandiose.
Many families use the grounds for picnicking or youth jump off the surrounding walls into the ocean.
Aah, time for a break.

| Grand Mosque Hassan II |
Many families use the grounds for picnicking or youth jump off the surrounding walls into the ocean.

| View from the mosque wall, looking south down the coast |
 |
| Looking down from the wall - definitely not going to jump! |
 |
| A bit neck-breaking looking up |
And on we went to take a peak inside:
 |
| Look at the tiny people in front of the doors |
 |
| Courtyard, also used for prayer |
 |
| (Welcome to look, but not to enter) Men departing from prayer |
Aah, time for a break.
