About the destination

Tangier is the junction where Europe and Africa meet; where the Atlantic merges into the Mediterranean and where Islam and Christendom intersect. Known as the gateway to Africa, Tangier gazes at Europe from both the Atlantic and Mediterranean coasts. At this significant intersection of civilizations, Tangier boasts a stunning, picturesque bay nestled beneath its verdant hills and ancient streets. As a hub for trade and commerce to various destinations, Tangier's history has left an indelible mark, with its sovereignty often contested. As any local will tell you, the Medina, or old town, is the most fascinating sight in Tangier. The medina of Tangier is a labyrinth of narrow streets perched on the hill above the harbor. Rue es-Siaghin descends from the Grand Socco to the Petit Socco, with side streets to the right brimming with shops. The main street of the medina leads to the Kasbah, the former Sultan's palace and the highest point in the medina. It offers breathtaking views of the ocean and the city. The gate opens onto a large courtyard, leading to the Dar el-Makhzem Palace and the contemporary Kasbah Museum. The palace, built in the 17th century and expanded by each successive sultan, features intricately carved wooden ceilings and a marble courtyard, showcasing the finesse of Moroccan craftsmanship. Tangier's Ville Nouvelle is a must-visit for admirers of late 19th and early 20th century architecture, boasting numerous exquisite buildings from this era. Here, you'll find the Terrasse des Paresseux, offering a spectacular ocean view that has enchanted countless European artists. With the harbor in front of you, gaze across the water to see the faint outlines of Gibraltar and southern Spain in the distance. Tangier elicits strong reactions; you either love it or hate it, with no middle ground. You may vow never to return, or you may find yourself drawn to it. But if you stay and adapt to its rhythm, you'll likely fall in love with its beauty. One thing is certain, though: Tangier is one of the most vibrant cities in Morocco.
