Tangier

Tangier's story unfolds over millennia, with evidence of Phoenician settlements dating back to the 10th century BC. The city's strategic location made it a prized possession for various empires, including the Romans and Vandals.

In the 7th century, Tangier fell under Islamic rule, becoming an important trading hub in the medieval Muslim world. It later became a haven for European spies and diplomats during the 19th and early 20th centuries, as European powers vied for control of this international city.

The 20th century ushered in a new era as Tangier gained international status and attracted artists, writers, and musicians seeking inspiration in its unique blend of cultures.

Today, Tangier stands as a city where the Kasbah's winding streets reveal ancient secrets, where the medina's vibrant markets beckon, and where the Cape Spartel lighthouse guards the entrance to the Strait of Gibraltar.
