EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this breathtaking panoramic view of Casablanca, Morocco's bustling coastal city, circa 1910s. The image captures the vibrant energy of Boulevard de la Gare, the city's main thoroughfare, which was then known as the Place des Français. The grandeur of the European architecture is on full display, with the imposing railway station dominating the scene. The station, a symbol of Morocco's connection to Europe, was built during the French Protectorate and served as a crucial transportation hub for travelers and merchants. The boulevard is filled with a diverse crowd of people, from European colonizers to Moroccan locals, all going about their daily business. The street is lined with trees, providing shade and a sense of tranquility amidst the hustle and bustle. In the distance, the Mediterranean Sea can be seen, adding to the picturesque beauty of the scene. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich history of Casablanca, a city that has long been a melting pot of cultures and influences. The image captures the essence of a bygone era, when Morocco was on the cusp of modernization and European influence. Today, Casablanca remains a vibrant and dynamic city, with a rich cultural heritage that continues to draw visitors from around the world.
