The Kingdom of Morocco is located in North Africa, bordering Western Sahara, Algeria and the North Atlantic Ocean. It has a population of nearly 32 million people. The largest city is Casablanca.
Morocco is a constitutional hereditary monarchy with the king as chief of state. A prime minister is head of government and appointed by the king after legislative elections. The King of Morocco holds extensive executive powers, including the ability to dissolve parliament.
In recent history, Morocco was a protectorate of France; and in 2006, Moroccans celebrated the 50th anniversary of independence from France. Arabs conquered the Berber region in the 7th century, bringing their civilization and Islam. The first Moroccan state was founded in the 8th century and became the first Islamic state separate from the Arab Empire. Therefore, this country has a strong sense of culture based on a long, ancient history. Visitors can enjoy the well-known cities of Casablanca, Tangier, and Marrakech with bazaars and medinas, as well as caves, tombs, Roman ruins, and museums.

安全保卫工作在Morocco
个人安全
Most travellers to Morocco do not experience safety and security problems. Petty crime, such as pickpocketing, assaults, muggings, and scams occur frequently in Morocco. Credit card fraud and thefts around ATMs are common. Always ensure your travel documents, valuables, and personal belongings are kept secure. Avoid showing any signs of affluence, such as expensive clothing, particularly after dark.
Never accept food or drink, invitations, or rides from strangers.
Morocco is a Muslim country. Respect the local customs and religion.
Travel in groups if possible. Women travelling alone may experience harassment and verbal abuse. Women should be prepared for the possibility of propositions, suggestive comments or catcalls, and ignore them. Female travellers should take cues from the local women - avoid wearing provocative, form-fitting clothing and maintain a formal demeanour at all times.
Same-sex relations are against the law in Morocco, and penalties include fines and jail terms.
Morocco has a high incidence of road accidents that involve fatalities. Road conditions vary depending on the area and the location. Drivers may not follow standard rules of driving.
In late 2018, two female hikers were murdered while hiking near Mount Toubkal, North Africa’s highest peak and a popular hiking destination. If you plan to hike, exercise caution and join a group hike or hire a registered guide.
极端暴力
Terrorists attacks are very common in Morocco. There is an increased threat linked to the number of Moroccans sympathetic or belonging to Daesh (formerly ISIL) and other extremist groups. There’s a threat of kidnapping against tourists in remote regions of Morocco as well as in areas bordering Algeria and Mauritania.
政治动荡
Demonstrations and protests do occur in Morocco and are generally peaceful. Such events mostly occur in Rabat. Minimize safety risk by avoiding public and political gatherings and demonstrations since even peaceful protests can quickly and unexpectedly escalate and become violent.
应避免的区域
The legal and political status of Western Sahara, a non-autonomous territory, is undetermined. Western Sahara’s status as part of Morocco is disputed. A mostly sand wall, ‘the Berm’, separates: areas controlled by Morocco and areas controlled by an independence movement known as the Polisario. If travellers need to visit Western Sahara, travel should be restricted to official tourist areas due to the risk of unexploded landmines from previous conflict. Do not travel in remote areas or in the desert areas in the south without an official guide recommended by a hotel or travel agency.
The border between Morocco and Algeria is closed. Do not attempt to cross into Algeria by land.
