About Touarga
What are the main landmarks in Touarga?
Chellah comes first. That name anchors the district, and Touarga adds the Mohammed VI Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art along with the Museum of History and Civilizations in Rabat, all three within the same district boundary. Three names, one district.
Agdal next door carries a single entry by comparison.
What is the history of Touarga?
The entry is sparse. Touarga appears under the Arabic name التواركة with no founding year attached to it, and what stands in for a written history is the ground itself, from Chellah to the collections gathered in the Museum of History and Civilizations in Rabat. Paperwork is thin here.
The district's age is read from its sites rather than from a charter.
Where is Touarga?
Touarga takes in a slice of Rabat beside Agdal, and Chellah stands among the ground the district covers.
