Capital status
National capital of Morocco
Rabat is the capital of Morocco and the seat of its government and royal palace, with a city population of roughly 1.7 million and over 2 million across the Rabat-Salé urban area on the Atlantic coast. Morocco observes permanent daylight saving time at UTC+1 for most of the year, but uniquely suspends it during the month of Ramadan, when clocks fall back to UTC+0 before returning to UTC+1 afterward; in 2026 the city reverted to GMT for Ramadan from mid-February and back to UTC+1 in March. Rabat lies at the mouth of the Bou Regreg river facing the city of Salé. Its historic monuments, including the 12th-century Hassan Tower and the Kasbah of the Udayas, were inscribed together as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2012.
