  The brief introduction
Morocco nestles on the northwestern tip of Africa and is bordered by Algeria in the east. It enjoys the fame of North African Garden owing to the endowed nice landscape. Morocco is far away from the unbearable heat of the Sahara desert because it is prevented by the mountains, which makes it an agreeable place. Of the population, 80 percent are Arabs with the religious belief of Islam and the rest are Berbers. 

 The bilateral relationship
The bilateral relationship of Sino-Morocco has a long history despite they are far away from each other in space. As early as the 8th century, the Chinese Duhuan went to visit Morocco. In 14th century, travelers from two countries visited each other's country nearly at the same time. Chinese inventions and achievements like paper-making and powder were passed to Europe via Morocco. From the day when the diplomatic bond was set up, the heads from two countries have paid frequent visit, as a result, more cooperation and exchange have been carried out. In 2007, the bilateral trade reached the historically highest point.

 The tourism
Morocco is rich in tourist resources; the income from tourism takes the first place in foreign currency. Rabat, Casablanca, Fes and Marrakech are all the hot destinations.

Rabat is the holy place where ancestors blessed. Seeing through the white city gate, tourists will be impressed with the blue sea, blue sky and blue rivers.  

The Anti-Atlas stretches about 400 miles, extending from the white beach on the Atlantic to the Sahara desert with magnificence and splendor. It rivals with the Alps and Pyrenean. The pink granite outlines the steep cliffs and winding canyon. There usually stand groups of houses. Most importantly, renting a car is a good way to tour there in one day. The diver can introduce the sites as well. If you have longer time, you can explore more and feel the friendliness and hospitality of Berbers.
