Lets talk about Algeria Algiers


A WONDROUS MIXTURE OF FRENCH ELEGANCE, MOORISH PRIDE, AND AFRICAN CASUALNESS PREVAILS, TOGETHER WITH THE GRIME OF A BUSTLING HARBOR METROPOLIS-ALL OF THAT IS ALGIERS.


Algeris is located on serious of terraces that clamber up the hillsides from the sea, towered over by the ramparts of the medieval Casbah, the OLD City. Full of flowers, beautiful Villas, and luxuriously green gardens, the geography of this Mediterranean city is best understood as  huge triangle. The seaside European quarter is its wide base, which narrows as it ascends the close winding lanes to the Moorish quarter, eventually coming to a point at the city's old fortress high above.
