Casablanca Cathedral

A view of Casablanca Cathedral (Church of the Sacred Heart of Jesus) shot from the car. It was built in 1930 but ceased its religious function in 1956, after Morocco won its independence, and is now a cultural center open to visitors. It is called a cathedral, but has never really been one since it was never the seat of a bishop.

Last glance at the Hassan II Mosque, posted earlier:

Looks impressive, towering high above the city. The combination of the white building and the palmtrees makes it a very exotic view.

Nice to see some trees! I realise vegetation was something missing from the mosque area, however sumptuous otherwise
