A UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2004, El Jadida is an elegant and refined city in Morocco.
Formerly called Mazagan, El Jadida was built by the Portuguese during their domination of Morocco from 1506 to 1769.
Originally composed of five bastions, the city now has only four: the Bastion of the Angel, which offers a splendid view of the city, the Bastion of San Sebastian, which houses a chapel from the sinister era of the Inquisition, as well as the Bastion of Saint Anthony and the Bastion of the Holy Spirit.
The elegant seaside resort of Sidi Bouzid is home to a magnificent beach.
Particularly popular in summer, the seaside resort benefits from currents from the Canary Islands, which refresh the surrounding air.
The Moussem of Moulay Abdellah is an annual religious celebration.
For hundreds of years, it has paid homage to the memory of Saint Moulay Abdellah Amghar.
A festive and popular gathering in Morocco, it is particularly popular with the tribes of Doukkala and is one of the major events of its kind on a national scale.
