Enjoy Rabat's Medina and the Kasbah of the Oudaya to the fullest!
The Medina in Rabat was well-organized, clean, and easy to navigate.
As you'd expect from the Medina of the capital.
There was no pushy sales and no forced sales, so I was able to shop at my own pace.
I bought 10 magnets and 4 bottles of Moroccan oil.
I had heard that the Medina in Rabat doesn't do much bargaining, but the store where I bought the magnets gave me a free magnet of my choice (so 11 in total), and the store where I bought the Moroccan oil gave me a free soap.
I was happy with the little considerations, and I was able to shop comfortably.
The magnets were 10DH each. So it was nice to get an extra one for free (*^_^*)
The price also differs depending on the store, but I felt that 10DH was about the average.
The designs of the magnets sold at each store are slightly different, so I think it's a good idea to choose one based on your favorite pattern or shape, the attitude of the staff, and so on.
There are many shops so please take your time and enjoy your shopping☆
The Moroccan oil was about 800 yen in Japanese yen.
I was told that I didn't get a receipt, but the staff's detailed explanation was what made me decide to buy it.
I honestly don't know much about the quality, so you can try it on, or you can choose based on the cleanliness of the store and the knowledge of the staff.
Some stores accept credit cards, but most only take cash.
It's safer to have cash ready.
After leaving the medina, you can see the Kasbah of the Udayas.
This place was also used as a location for the movie "Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation (5th movie)", and it was easy to access, so I was glad to see it while shopping in the medina.
I definitely recommend going to the Kasbah after watching the movie☆
When you go down the slope from the Kasbah, you can see the sea and the city on the opposite bank.
I was impressed by the beautiful view, which was different from the atmosphere I had seen so far!
The Medina of Rabat and Kasbah des Ouda are must-see tourist spots.
