Taza-Al Hoceima-Taounate, Former administrative territory in northern Morocco

The region spans between the Rif Mountains and Middle Atlas ranges, encompassing agricultural plains and mountainous landscapes across northern Morocco at elevations from 450 to 580 meters.

The territory held military significance as a defensive point against invasions, with its capital Taza serving as a strategic outpost controlling trade routes since the 7th century.

Each town in the region maintains traditional souks where merchants sell local products, including wickerwork, tapestries, and agricultural goods from surrounding farmlands.

The region connects to major Moroccan cities through the N6 highway, which runs east to west between Fez and Oujda, facilitating transportation and commerce.

The Rhar Chara cave system near Taza extends for 7.6 kilometers, containing paleolithic remains that document early human presence in North Africa.
