Morocco-Tanger🇲🇦A North African city closest to Spain

📍Located in Tangier, Morocco, a city in northern Africa closest to Spain in Europe. 🔹In addition to being the third largest city in Morocco, it is also the largest port city in the north. From here, it is close to the Atlantic Ocean, and you can also feel the leisure atmosphere of the seaside city. 🔸Tanger is very close to Spain. If you have enough time, you can consider taking a boat across the Strait of Gibraltar to Tarifa, Spain. The boat trip is also about an hour. 📸The following three attractions are relatively famous and popular check-in destinations in Tangier! 🔹Hercules Cave The cave has two openings, one leading to the sea and one to the land. The cave's fame is mainly due to the legend about the mythical hero Hercules and the outline of the African continent, which was one of the entrances to the grotto from the sea, so the cave is also known as the "Map of Africa". The cave itself is partly natural and partly man-made. The man-made parts were used by the Berbers to cut stone wheels from the walls to create grinding stones, thus enlarging the cave. 🔸Cape Spartel Cape Spartel is a cape in Morocco and one end of the Strait of Gibraltar in Spain. There is a lighthouse built in 1864. The strait in front of it is the intersection of the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. 🔹Tanger Castle Located in the old town, right by the sea. From the castle, you can not only see a panoramic view of the old city, but also overlook the harbor of the new district, with the entire blue sea in sight. #morocco #Africa #tanjier #Herculescave #spartelcape #tanjiercastle
