A vista of the old part of Tangier, Morocco contrasting with apartment buildings in the hills overlooking the city. Fishing boats and a small portion of the fort are on the right with the hidden souk in the middle. As the city stretches along the coast, part fronts the Meiterranean Sea and part on the Atlantic Ocean.

Formerly the chancery of the United States diplomatic mission to Morocco, it was the first American public property abroad and is the only U.S. National Historic Landmark located in a foreign country. The legation was established on May 17, 1821. Sultan Mohammed ben Abdallah issued a proclamation recognizing U.S. independence from Great Britain on December 20, 1777, making his nation the first to do so. The building was gifted by the sultan to the U.S. government to serve as a diplomatic post, for which it served for the next 140 years.
