Ancienne Médina
Casablanca's small and dilapidated medina gives an idea of just how petite the city was
before the French embarked on their massive expansion program. Most of the buildings
date from the 19th century, so it lacks the medieval character of other medinas. Plans are
afoot to restore many buildings.
Enter the medina from the northeast corner of the Pl des Nations Unies near the re-
ite it. Narrow lanes to the east are piled high with cheap shoes, high-sheen underwear and
household goods. The rest of the medina remains largely residential. The old city's main
Friday mosque is the
Jemaa ash-Chleuh
along Rue Jemaa ash-Chleuh Arsalane.
