Day 2 to 6 {RABAT}

OUDAYA 

First day at Rabat was very interesting, started when we gathered going to Oudaya.

The Kasbah of the udayas is a kasbah in Rabat, Morocoo at the mouth of the Bou Regreg river opposite Sale. It was build during the reign of the Almohads (AD 1121-1269).

Oudaya is a very marvelous place to chill out and forget about everything.
it was really fun, our group got to know each other


  this is view from the top of the Kasbah


KING'S ROYAL PALACE



The \King's royal palace is a very well-known place, everyones main step in visiting morroco
tourists love taking pictures in the beautiful view around the palace.





 CHELLAH



Chellah existed since pre-Islamic times, when had complex buildings of ancient Roman Mauretania Tingitana named Sala Colonia. 







HASSAN TOUR




Hassan Tower or Tour Hassan (Arabic: صومعة حسان‎) is the minaret of an incomplete mosque in Rabat, Morocco. Begun in 1195, the tower was intended to be the largest minaret in the world along with the mosque, also intended to be the world's largest. In 1199, Sultan Yacub al-Mansour died and construction on the mosque stopped. The tower reached 44 m (140 ft), about half of its intended 86 m (260 ft) height. The rest of the mosque was also left incomplete, with only the beginnings of several walls and 200 columns being constructed.









AFter hassan tour we heard about a very interesting museum called Mohamed the 5th




SKHIRATE - PAINTBALL 


so it all started by meeting at the tram-station where aiesec members came to pick us up, its 20 minutes far from our location thats why !

firstly, we went to a challenging paintball game, of course we went to the beach right after.

Day 1
I arrive in Casablanca airport , contact aiesec , and easily step by step on the phone we met in Rabat the capital city. transportation wasn't a problem at all , the train station is in the airport.



its a 5 hours long flight from egypt 
train ticket from airport to meeting point at Rabat ville   
Arriving at Rabat train station feeling that i already love this country, just from the landscape and the amazing veiws i saw on my way in the train. Anyways i waited around 15 min in the station, then met Simo,Walid and khaleel (VPs and Team leader),we rode togther to the EP house.
Note;just meeting them 3 made me to love Morrocans and being more happy in my stay in Morroco.






So we arrive at the EP house meeting new people from all around the world, i wasn't that shy or feeling weird the first day as there was 3 new EPs who also just arrived so it actually felt good,then Waleed the VP start explaining the project.
