Judg. 15:20      Judg. 16:2

Judges 16:1

And Samson went down [all the way] to Gaza. There he saw a prostitute and went in to her (had sexual intercourse with her).
[Gaza was the southernmost of the five major Philistine cities, see Josh. 13:3. Samson is far down in the Philistine territory, see Judg. 6:4. It was a large city covering 55 hectares, today the ancient city is surrounded by modern buildings. The Hebrew name is Aza, which comes from the word az – strong!]
