Kasbah Oudaya

Kasbah Oudaya in Rabat is absolutely magical! We visited during the first sunset of Ramadan and didn’t expect such a crowd or atmosphere. People gather to celebrate iftar together, and the narrow, whitewashed streets create a charming maze — it’s easy to get lost, but that’s part of the adventure. The views of the river and ocean are stunning. It’s a pity the garden was closed, as it would have added even more charm, but even without it, our walk through the Kasbah was unforgettable. A perfect spot for sunset and a genuine taste of local culture.

The Kasbah of the Udayas is a must-visit historical gem in Rabat. This beautiful fortress, perched at the mouth of the Bouregreg River, offers stunning views of both the river and the Atlantic Ocean. Walking through its narrow, blue-and-white painted streets feels like stepping back in time. The kasbah is peaceful, full of charm, and perfect for photography. Small cafés and gardens add to the relaxed atmosphere. The history behind the walls, along with the nearby Andalusian Gardens, makes it a culturally rich experience. Whether you enjoy history, architecture, or simply a scenic stroll, the Kasbah of the Udayas is a highlight of any trip to Rabat and offers a unique glimpse into Morocco’s past.

My visit to the Kasbah of the Udayas was truly unforgettable The area feels peaceful and full of charm, with its narrow blue-and-white streets, traditional doors, and beautifully preserved architecture. Walking through the kasbah feels like stepping into a calm and historic part of the city, far from the busy streets outside. The Andalusian Gardens add a refreshing touch, and the viewpoint overlooking the ocean and the Bouregreg River is absolutely stunning. A perfect place for relaxing walks, photography, and soaking in the authentic beauty of Rabat

Beautiful place with great Atlantic View, go alone you will loose the directions inside the kasbah 😃 The colours, the walls, the designs and especially the people are very warm welcoming 😀. Must see the view when it is sunny, blow your mind. Come with a beautiful camera, grab nice pics 🙌

Beautiful views from here. The alleys are also beautiful with beautiful colour tones to the houses. Be careful of scammers who hang around the entrance to the Kasbah who may attempt to give you wrong directions. As you enter the Kasbah, there is a big gate to your left. Simply follow the shops all the way down keeping to the left. This will bring you to the viewpoint.

Very beautiful place where you can wander by yourself or go with a tour group. There's a cafe and great little store not far from the entrance ....and a girl doing henna decorations but it did not last even a day let alone a week! The views from the far end of the site are magnificent. On Tuesday the museum and gardens are closed, which was disappointing, but the kasbah is always open.

Beautiful, picturesque place with charming houses and narrow, winding streets. The main street is lined with vendors selling food and souvenirs, adding to the lively atmosphere. There's a nice sea view, although unfortunately we visited on a very foggy day, so it wasn't as impressive as it could have been. Be extra cautious of scammers and pickpockets, as they're quite active, and the henna ladies can be very persistent. Despite that, it's a lovely place to wander and soak in the local charm.

Gorgeous place to wander. Blue and white lanes, flowers on the walls, and quiet corners that feel timeless. The views over the river and the ocean are worth the climb. The Andalusian garden is calm and shady, perfect for a slow walk. Easy to spend an hour here taking photos, stopping for tea, and soaking in the history. A must visit in Rabat.
