It lies on the North African coast at the western entrance to the Strait of Gibraltar where the Mediterranean meets the Atlantic Ocean off Cape Spartel. It is the capital of the Tangier-Tétouan Region.

Tangiers looks like Turkish coastal towns, there are amazing similarities. I'm sure I would feel at home there.

South Spain is Moroccan! Andalousia was part of Morocco in the past!
