A Gem at the Crossroads of Continents 🌍🏰🔧(1)
🏙️Tangier, Morocco: Tangier, a historic city in northern Morocco, is the country's largest tourist center 🌴. Located at the mouth of the Bay of Tangier in the Strait of Gibraltar (35.7°N, 5.9°W), it's just 11 - 15 km from Eurasia. 🌐 This strategic spot is a global transport crossroads ⛵, where ships to the Mediterranean or Atlantic must pass or dock, and vessels along the Atlantic coast adjust courses here, making it a long - contested military prize 🛡️. Built on seashore slopes, Tangier has a mild climate with gentle breezes ☀️. 🏡It's a picturesque coastal mountain town with white houses, green hills, and blue sea 🌊. There are many landmarks 🏛️📜. Ruins of ancient Roman baths and oil workshops, the famous Cape Spartel Lighthouse 💡, and the monument to Mohammed V's independence declaration are must - sees. 🗼 The Sidi Bou Abid Mosque near the Grand Socco Square has a colorful - tiled roof, exuding solemnity and grandeur 🎨. #Morocco #Tangier #The Sea at the End of the World
