Colorful and lively town of Asilah, Tangier, Morocco.

Tangier is the third largest city in Morocco, facing the sea. The famous attraction Cap Spartel Lighthouse marks the boundary between the Atlantic Ocean on the left and the Strait of Gibraltar and the Mediterranean Sea on the right, known as the "end of the world" in the northwest of the African continent. Another major attraction is the town of Asilah. You can take a train from Rabat to Tangier. In Tangier, we rented a car to visit the lighthouse and Asilah for a day. Visiting the seaside town of Aixira is like stepping into a fairy tale world, with a feeling of walking into a painting. Artists paint on the streets and walls of residential buildings, with vivid works including abstract paintings, portraits, cartoons, and many related to daily life. The small stalls on the street are also decorated with artistic flair. The locals are friendly and enthusiastic, some even performing on the street. Unlike the old city, Aixira is clean, bright, and colorful. It is a place where you can take endless photos, but remember to leave a tip when watching local performances or taking pictures. Asilah is suitable for half-day sightseeing, and with plenty of time, you can dine at seaside cafes or restaurants.
