    I just finished an unforgettable journey of exploration, and the magnificent scenery of Hercules Cave struck me deeply. Every step made me feel like I was talking to nature, and every rock seemed to whisper ancient stories. The mysterious atmosphere and the wonderful shape of nature in the cave constitute a breathtaking scene. Hercules Cave is not only a visual feast, but also a spiritual baptism. It is highly recommended for friends who like adventure and the beauty of nature. It is definitely a journey worth experiencing!

    Cape Spartel is located in the northwest of the African continent. The sea level here is more than 300 meters, and you can overlook the majestic sea. There are two towers at the cape, which are mainly used as lighthouses to serve passing ships. They are the iconic landscape of the place. There is a cave under the cape with a long history. Archaeologists discovered the remains of the Neolithic Age. Later, the rocks next to the cave were continuously mined, and finally the cave became larger and larger, reaching its current size. In fact, many major historical events have taken place at Cape Spartel: the American War of Independence in 1782, and the British and French fleets also fought naval battles not far away. In the Spanish Civil War in 1936, it was a contest between the nationalist and republican fleets. In the end, the republic broke the blockade of the Strait of Gibraltar by the republic, ensuring the naval supply route for the nationalists to Spain and Morocco in the early days of the war The west side is the Atlantic Ocean, and the east side is connected to the Mediterranean Sea. A pure white lighthouse stands alone on the cliff of the cape, like a night watchman wearing traditional Moroccan clothes and holding an oil lamp, guiding the direction of ships passing by for centuries This pattern is on the back of the 200-dirham note, which shows the importance of this inconspicuous lighthouse Address: 1.14km Achakar commun de Tanger, 90000 Morocco Transportation: There is no public transportation in this place. If you don’t drive yourself, you can charter a car. It costs 250 dirhams round trip with the African Cave, and the price is about 175 yuan. Each scenic spot will wait for you to take pictures. Three hours round trip is enough.

    Tangier is a beautiful city, especially the old town area and the castle. The castle built on the mountain was once a fortress to defend against Spanish invasion. When the weather is good, you can see the Iberian Peninsula in the distance.
