About 20km from Tangiers is one of the loveliest beaches named Achakar beach. - It has vast expanses of sand that are available to swimmers. - The Mediterranean Sea extends over three kilometres of fine sandy beach that unfolds right at the junction of the waves of the Atlantic. - This beach has the advantage of being very clean and pleasant to use. - The Caves of Hercules is an archaeological cave complex located in Cape Spartel, Morocco. Situated 14 kilometres (9 mi) west of Tangier, the popular tourist attraction is adjacent to the summer palace of the King of Morocco. - The cave has two openings, one to sea and one to land. The sea opening is known as The Map of Africa. It is believed that the Phoenicians created the sea opening which is in the shape of Africa when looked at from the sea. There are also some markings on the wall in the shape of eyes, that are said to be made by the Phoenicians, which make up a map of the local area. - The cave itself is part natural and part man-made. The man-made part was used by Berber people to cut stone wheels from the walls, to make millstones, thus expanding the cave considerably.[2] There are both free and paid entrances. It costs 5 Moroccan dirhams per person to enter the cave and an optional additional 5 for a guide, but other currencies are also accepted. - The kasbah (citadel) of Tangier was built right after the city was evacuated by the English in 1684 and reclaimed by Morocco.The sultan of Morocco, Moulay Ismail, supported the city's resettlement and commissioned its reconstruction, overseen by its new governor, Ali ibn Abdallah Errifi. As the English blew up the city's fortifications before leaving, the city's defenses had to be almost entirely rebuilt. One part of this reconstruction involved establishing the Moroccan government's seat of power in the city within a self-contained fortified district, the kasbah (much as in other traditional Moroccan cities). This district had its own walls and gates, within which was a palace (the Dar al-Makhzen), a governor's residence, a treasury, a courthouse, prisons, stables, residential quarters for the military, a parade ground (méchouar or mishwar), and a mosque. - The Kasbah Mosque in Tangier, Morocco, is the main mosque of the historic royal citadel (kasbah) in the old city (medina) of Tangier. It dates to the late 17th century. - The mosque of the kasbah of Tangier was thus built by Ali Errifi, under Moulay Ismail's reign in the late 17th century. Errifi was also responsible for rebuilding the city's Grand Mosque further south.The mosque was expanded by Errifi's grandson, Ahmed, who added its minaret and ornate entrance.Its prayer hall was expanded under Sultan Muhammad ibn Abd al-Rahman (Mohammed IV), who ruled between 1859 and 1873.It was restored around 1889 for the visit of Sultan Moulay Hassan I .In 1921, the official in charge of religious foundations (habous) in the region restored the mosque but covered up much of its original decoration in the process, using new colors. Some of this cover-up has been cleared in recent cleared in recent years during renovations that finished around 2015. - Every tourist destination need to have a place which will take you back in time and Tangier is no exception. The Kasbah Museum in Tangier has several names. Tangier Casbah and Musée de la Kasbah being the most prominent ones. Just like the different names this museum has, there are different types of exhibits which are displayed here. Old Roman and Phoenician artefacts and lot of information about North African culture are present here. There are private tours organised frequently here which give detailed information about the museum and the exhibits. - The Grand Socco Alto Mall is a large Shopping Mall in Tangier, Morocco. The term, socco is a Spanish corruption of the Arabic souq (or souk). The Grand Socco Alto Mall and Carrefour Socco occupy Tangier's medina (old quarter) and continues to operate as a bazaar or market-place. - The Moshe Nahon Synagogue in Tangier, Morocco, is a historic and culturally significant religious site. Known for its elegant architecture and rich history, the synagogue stands as a testament to the vibrant Jewish heritage of Tangier. With intricate detailing and a serene ambiance, it offers a place of worship and reflection for both locals and visitors interested in exploring the city's diverse religious tapestry.
