Best Tourist Attractions In Tangiers 2019

• The Caves of Hercules:

These are natural limestone caves dug by the sea which floods them at high tide.
The Cave supposedly has remnants of the passage of Hercules - his footprints, his bowl and all the traces of his legendary passage.
It’s a legend which the souvenir sellers, who set up shop inside the caves and in the nearby cafés and restaurants, have taken advantage of.

The Medina of Tangiers concentrates the essential elements that make up the history of this legendary, cosmopolitan and open city.
To discover it, start from the Place 9 Avril or Souk Barra. This is a commercial area known for its stalls of agricultural products from the surrounding area.
Tangiers unites the old and the new - the Cinematheque of Tangier, which has taken the place of the Rif Cinema, the Anglican Church of Saint Andrews, the Sidi Bouabid Mosque and the Mendoubia Palace are attractions worth seeing, as well as the stalls and old Kasbah.
