Casbah of Algiers
UNESCO medieval medina with steep streets, Ottoman architecture, and sweeping views of the port.
The old city rises steeply from the harbor with narrow streets lined with traditional townhouses. The Casbah reflects Ottoman and Arab-Andalusian styles, with courtyards hidden behind plain facades. The Great Mosque and Ketchaoua Mosque are architectural highlights. Wander the souks for traditional crafts and textiles. The area can feel chaotic; stay aware of surroundings and use official guides if unsure.
