Why visit Tangier?

Tangier sits at the northern tip of Morocco on the Strait of Gibraltar, where the Mediterranean meets the Atlantic and Spain is visible on clear days. Once an international zone that attracted writers and artists such as Paul Bowles, Henri Matisse and the Beat poets, it has been transformed in recent years while keeping its atmosphere.

Climb into the whitewashed medina to the Kasbah, where the Kasbah Museum occupies the old sultan's palace, and drink mint tea at Café Hafa, terraced above the sea since 1921. The Grand Socco square leads into the market lanes, and the American Legation, the first US public property abroad, is now a museum. Matisse painted the view from his room at the Grand Hotel Villa de France. West of the city, Cap Spartel marks the meeting of the two seas, and the Caves of Hercules open towards the Atlantic. The high-speed Al Boraq train links Tangier with Rabat and Casablanca, and Chefchaouen and Tetouan are easy trips.
