Morocco
Tangier's home country
Morocco is a country in northwestern Africa, bordered by the Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea.
Known for its ancient medinas, desert landscapes, and cultural blend of Arab, Berber, and European influences: We spent two weeks traveling through Morocco. (Lowercase morocco is a type of leather.)
