The Chellah

Thought about one of the most enchanting places in the nation, the Chellah god's acre is a location loaded with enigma, perfect for an expedition.

It lies on the site of the old Roman city of Sala Colonia, 2 kilometers southeast of the city center.

Long utilized as a burial ground for Moroccan sovereigns, this ancient location with its rich vegetation supplies a splendid sight of the Bouregreg River.

Inside the site, which has become a haunt for storks and various other pets, there are tombs, a pond, and a multicolored minaret.

Outside the city limits, the remains of this necropolis were left deserted for a very long time. Today, the site is noted and also shielded by the Moroccan authorities, who have actually acknowledged the historic and tourist interest of this location like nothing else.

It will certainly take you roughly an hour to see it. In the evening, the necropolis takes on its most lovely colors, and it ends up being easier to understand why it influences so many secrets and tales.

Exactly how to get there: From the Great Mosque, take Method Yacoub el Mansour to the south-east. It is far better, though, to arrive by car or taxi.
