Casablanca, Morocco

We hired a taxi to take us around town. Hassen II Mosque is the third largest mosque in the world. Catholics certainly have nothing over the Muslims when it comes to beautiful buildings.  It holds 20,000 men and 5,000 women.

Walk across the floor to the windows looking out over the ocean.

The women are separated upstairs.

6 sets of doors

Maintaining the gold must be a year round job.

Before you enter the main building you visit the basement and  do the washing. You wash your hands three times, your face three times, and your feet.
