It is huge, you cannot really visit it (but it is a nice walk), the armed guards might allow you walk from one entrance to another especially if you look like a tourist. Bring your passport.
The Royal Palace or Dar al-Makhzen is the primary and official residence of the king of Morocco in Rabat. It is situated in the commune of Touarga, a district enclosed by historic walls that separate it from the rest of the city. Inside this area, the palace is fronted by a mechouar surrounded by gardens, the Ahl Fas Mosque, and various residences and official buildings.

One of the old city's best medieval gates, located close to downtown and the Royal Palace. Not worth a special detour if you've already seen Chellah or the Kasbah (which both have similar gateways), but interesting if you're walking in the area and have time to spare. Sometimes the interior is open for shows or art exhibits.
This museum houses artifacts from various periods of Morocco's history, including ancient Roman and medieval objects.
A city possibly founded by Phoenicians, then occupied by Romans, before becoming a royal necropolis in the Islamic era. After being abandoned for centuries, it is now settled by a huge colony of storks. This breeding ground bubbles with bird life in spring, including a stork nest on the top of old minaret. Both Roman remains and a ruined 14th-century Islamic complex can be visited. You can walk there from the city centre, but it is a long walk.
Theatre in Downtown Rabat, nothing absolutely outstanding but there are performances each month.
