Rabat (Arabic الرباط, transliterated ar-Rabāṭ or ar-Ribāṭ, literally "Fortified Place"), is the capital and third largest city of the Kingdom of Morocco with a population of approximately 650,000 (2010). It is also the capital of the Rabat-Salé-Zemmour-Zaer region.
The city is located on the Atlantic Ocean at the mouth of the river Bou Regreg. On the facing shore of the river lies Salé, Rabat's bedroom community. Together with Temara the cities account for a combined metropolitan population of 1.8 million. Silting problems have diminished the Rabat's role as a port; however, Rabat and Salé still maintain important textile, food processing and construction industries. In addition, tourism and the presence of all foreign embassies in Morocco serve to make Rabat one of the most important cities in the country. Controversy surrounds sweatshop labour by major multinational corporations in the area (see Salé).
Rabat is accessible by train through the ONCF system and by plane through the nearby Rabat-Salé Airport.

Rabat is the capital of Morocco, and at various times in its history, it has been a Roman colony, a pirate base and a French protectorate. Today the city has a flourishing art scene with museums, art galleries and a grand theater. Visitors to Rabat can enjoy the culture of the past as well as the present.
One of the most popular attractions in Rabat is the Hassan Tower and its mosque. These structures were begun in 1195 A.D., but were never completed. Even so, the tower is an impressive sight with a height of 140 feet, and now has World Heritage status. The Chellah is the oldest part of the city, and it is here that visitors can see remains of the ancient Roman colony.
Rabat has always been a center of culture and the arts, and it remains so today. For those who seek a visible reminder of the past, Rabat is a great place to find it.
