📷 Top Attractions

No.1 Bendigo
Sacred Heart Cathedral
The Sacred Heart Cathedral is a pretty, unique white church in Casablanca - a white, distinctively shaped former church now a cultural venue, pretty and unique. Built in the early 20th century in the French colonial period, it is a white Catholic church blending Gothic (Neo-Gothic) and Art Deco styles, with white towers and geometric decoration. No longer a church, it is now a cultural exhibition and event space. Its white, unique architecture remains a distinctive landmark. Visitors can appreciate its architectural beauty and learn its modern history. A vivid sight in Casablanca.
