    还不曾去过倒悬山!还不曾去过倒悬山!

    Built to mark the 20th anniversary of Algeria's independence (1982), it symbolizes three major revolutions in industry, land and culture, and is shaped into three slanted palm leaves. Designed by Poles, the tower is 92 meters high and has a viewing layer on top overlooking the port of Algiers and the Mediterranean Sea.

    1. The scenery is good, the wet climate of the Mediterranean is very comfortable. Unique wild plant environment, the sand is very fine and it is very comfortable to step on. The beach is not big, there are diving and yacht projects. 2. The ancient Roman ruins are very seriously decayed because they are not well protected. If the Chinese go, the cultural experience will be very poor. A few stones and a bunch of tour guides say that it is an ancient theater, and the sensory contrast is too big. 3. Many locals go swimming and sea fishing. For the poor material life, this is one of the few good places to spend a holiday. If you are used to the coastal cities of Sanya, Beihai and Qingdao, the beach experience here may disappoint you.

  • Port of Algierstop_3

    󱓊Colonial-style port & French architecture
    Overlooks Algiers Bay & hills
    4.8/5
    一直在天际的云一直在天际的云

    A place worth spending time in. In addition to the seaside promenade, the museums, characteristic blocks and cafes along the way are all worth experiencing. If you stay, I recommend el aurassi, where you can enjoy the harbor view, the three-leaf tower and the Grand Mosque while sitting on the balcony.

  • Church of Notre Dame d'Afrique

    The Cathedral of Our Lady of Africa in Algiers is a magnificent church building with obvious features of European churches, yellow exterior walls and huge domes, which give it a sacred and solemn charm. It is also a religious holy place in Algiers, so you must visit it.

    The Royal Tombs of Mauritania Province, also known as the Mausoleum of Christ, is a building from the Numibian period. It is located in the Sidi Rached district of Tipasa Province, Algeria, 60 kilometers west of Algiers Province. It was listed as a World Heritage Site in 1982 and in 2002 by UNESCO. There are lights at night, and you can see it from a distance on the highway, which is very spectacular. This is the largest royal garden tomb in the ancient Egyptian period in West Africa. The most famous one is the Princess Tomb, which is a huge bun-shaped tomb where the daughter of the famous Egyptian queen is buried. After more than 4,000 years, it is basically well preserved. The entire garden covers a large area. Standing on the hilltop of the Princess Tomb, you can overlook the entire area. The scale is grand and the momentum is extraordinary.

    The Grand Post Office of Algiers was built in 1910 in a neo-Moorish style. It is also a landmark building in the center of Algiers, the capital of Algeria. The Grand Post Office is still in operation as a post office and issues various first-day covers and commemorative stamps from time to time. There is a bookstore opposite that sells postcards, which can be bought and mailed at the post office.
