Algiers

Algiers, Algeria’s coastal capital, is a city of striking contrasts and deep cultural layers. From the whitewashed Ottoman houses of the UNESCO-listed Casbah to elegant French colonial facades, its architecture reflects centuries of Berber, Phoenician, Roman, Andalusian, Ottoman, and French influence.

Iconic landmarks like the Ketchaoua Mosque, Notre-Dame d’Afrique, and the towering Great Mosque minaret echo the city’s rich heritage, while its vibrant rhythm remains rooted in tradition, resistance, and artistic expression.
