Tangier

Tangier

French and Islamic influences merge in this fascinating old city of mosques and minarets, casbahs and modern boulevards. From the shadowy streets of the marketplace to the open vistas in the nparks above, Tangier offers a sharp, remarkable taste of Morocco.

Shopping

Most brasswork is made in other towns but is available here. Leather goods are also available. Stay away from the tourist traps and you may find the price quite agreeable. There is a infamous market in Tangier called "casa barata" (the house of cheap things) - there are bargains to be had here but be wary of forgeries and stolen goods (these are sold along vegetables, electronics, clothing, shoes, spices, carpets, ironmongery and everything else one can think of!).

Currency

Currency in Morocco: Moroccan dirham (MAD)
