The Bouzaafar mosque, which everyone calls the Spanish mosque, was built during the protectorate on the hill opposite. Today it is the town's viewpoint. You climb from Ras el-Ma on a dirt path, short but steep: about 20 minutes at an easy pace.
Arrive half an hour before sunset and you will see the blue medina light up as the lights come on. Bring water and a torch for the way down; the path has no lighting and you come back in the dark.
