About Tanger

Tanger ligt waar Atlantische Oceaan en Middellandse Zee samenkomen, een legendarische havenstad met witte medina-steegjes, een kasbah en zicht op Spanje.

De medina klimt van de haven naar de kasbah, waar het oude sultanspaleis, Dar el Makhzen, een museum met uitzicht over de Straat van Gibraltar herbergt. De Grand Socco en de Petit Socco waren lang de ontmoetingsplekken van de stad, en hun cafés herinneren aan de decennia waarin Tanger een internationale zone was die schrijvers, musici en kunstenaars aantrok.
