Just a kilometre and a half away from Rabat, this place is very interesting for aviation enthusiasts. You can see several aircraft, including the Spitfire. From there you can walk to the crafts village, and also to Medina glass.

This place is next to Buskett gardens. It is accessible by bus 52 and 56. You will have to use a maps software, as you need to walk about 8 minutes from the bus stop. These cart ruts are a big mystery, because no one has a definite conclusion how or when they were made. Interesting and a good place to take pictures.
