Parc Perdicaris, Public park in Rmilat neighborhood, Tangier, Morocco.

The 70-hectare forest park contains hundreds of eucalyptus trees, palm varieties, dragon trees, mimosas, and weeping willows on northern slopes of Jebel Kebir hill.

Ion Perdicaris, a Greek-American notable, established the park in the 1870s and built an eclectic villa named Château Perdicaris in its center.

The restored Château Perdicaris now functions as a heritage center, inaugurated in 2022, displaying local history and biodiversity information to visitors.

Located between Cape Spartel reserve and Jebel Kebir Royal Palace, the park remains open all day and offers numerous walking paths with views of Gibraltar Strait.

In 1904, the park gained international attention when Raisuli kidnapped Ion Perdicaris, leading to President Theodore Roosevelt's military intervention in Morocco.
