EDITORS COMMENTS
Basking in the radiant North African sun, the coastal city of Tangier, Morocco, comes alive in this aerial photograph from the 1940s. The image showcases the stunning Avenue d'Espagne, a vibrant thoroughfare that hugs the coastline, connecting the heart of the city with its bustling port and harbor. At the epicenter of this bustling scene stands the majestic Majestic Hotel, an architectural gem that proudly overlooks the sparkling waters. The hotel, with its distinctive curved silhouette, is a testament to the opulence and allure that once drew travelers from far and wide to Tangier. As the eye travels beyond the hotel, the photograph reveals a myriad of intriguing details. A winding road, Avenue d'Espagne, meanders along the coastline, leading to a series of buildings that house cafes, restaurants, and garages. The pavement teems with activity, as tables and chairs are arranged for patrons to enjoy a leisurely meal or a cup of coffee. The image also reveals the presence of a garage, a nod to the city's thriving automotive culture during the 1940s. The curved buildings, with their Spanish influences, create a harmonious blend of architectural styles that is uniquely Tangier. The photograph offers a glimpse into a bygone era, transporting us back to a time when the city was a melting pot of cultures and a playground for the rich and famous. This aerial view of the coast road in Tangier is a testament to the enduring charm and allure of this North African gem.
