    Casablanca is a city of northwest Morocco on the Atlantic Ocean south-southwest of Tangier. Founded by the Portuguese in the i6th century, it became a center of French influence in Africa after 1907. It is now Morocco's largest city.

    卡萨布兰卡是摩洛哥西北部濒临大西洋的一座城市,位于丹吉尔西南部偏南。16世纪葡萄牙人建立该城,1907年后成为法国在非洲的势力中心。现在是摩洛哥最大的城市。

    Casablanca is a modern city and beautiful in its own respect. It gets the name from Spanish, means "white house", and the Hollywood film Casablanca made this white city more famous all over the world.

    卡萨布兰卡是一座现代城市,具有独特的美。该名源于西班牙语,意为“白色的房子”。好莱坞电影《卡萨布兰卡》更是让这座白色之城闻名世界。

    Among the most visible aspects of Casablanca are the wide boulevards flanked by white, tall buildings. The streets run out as the leaves of a fan from the Place des Nations Unties. This place is the focal point of downtown Casablanca.

    卡萨布兰卡最吸引人的还是那些宽广的林荫大道,大道旁边还伴有白色的高楼大厦。街道呈扇形从市中心的联合国广场向外延伸,这个广场是卡萨布兰卡市中心的焦点。

    The old city of Casablanca is conveniently located- just off the main town square from where all avenues radiate, and near the sea. But as you enter, you will see that it is not all that old after all, that the houses here often have a form and size which would have made them natural Elements in the "new" parts of many other Moroccan cities.

    卡萨布兰卡的旧城区位置便利——刚好远离所有扩散在道路两旁的主要城镇,离大海很近。但一旦你走进它,你会发现它并没那么破旧,这里房子的格局和规模使他们与许多摩洛哥其他城市的新区融为一体。

    But still, it is very nice, even if it is surprisingly small.The best parts of the old city is made up of shopping areas,where all types of products are sold, and you should not either miss out on the less visited quarters- the areas where people live - where colors, shapes and curves bring you far away from elegance of downtown Casablanca.

    尽管它的规模之小令人惊讶,但它仍然很美丽。旧城区最好的地方是它的购物区,在那里有各种各样的商品出售。同时,你也不能错过那些游客较少的地区——居民住宅区——那里的颜色、轮廓和转弯处将带你远离卡萨布兰卡市区的优雅。
