"Condé Nast Traveller salutes this Moroccan capital for its dynamic music festivals, prestigious architecture, and luxury hotel establishments, thus raising it among the jewels of travel and one of the best destinations in Africa," writes the English-language media outlet in a feature published in its "Global Destinations" section.
Rabat is now attracting attention thanks to a series of exciting new developments, the same source says, highlighting the "fascinating cultural and artistic renaissance" the Moroccan capital has embarked upon.
"Global Diplomatic" cites the forthcoming Mohammed VI Tower, designed to be LEED Gold and HQE-certified and projected to be the tallest and only spire of its kind in Africa.
However, according to the media, the city's real treasure lies in the new Grand Théâtre of Rabat, designed by legendary architect Zaha Hadid and destined to become "the largest venue of its kind in Africa and the Arab world."
Another notable cultural moment to anticipate is the long-awaited return of the Mawazine festival in 2024, after a break due to COVID-19, notes the Bulgarian media, underscoring the prestigious past of this cultural event, which attracted celebrities such as Rihanna and Mariah Carey.
"Global Diplomatic" also focuses on the launch of several high-end hotels in Rabat, which "marks the beginning of an era of modern luxury in this historic city."
"Rabat thus promises an exceptional experience for travelers looking for unique discoveries in 2024," concludes the media outlet.
