Its name already resonates among insiders as the latest on-trend destination in the Maghreb: Algiers is on the rise. A sense of renewal weaves through the cultural heritage of its UNESCO-listed kasbah and the amphitheatre of its hills tumbling down towards the Mediterranean. Entire neighbourhoods are being transformed, like Telemly on the heights of the city, where restaurants, antique shops, young designers’ studios and art galleries have sprung up. Further up, in Sidi Yahia, there are countless trendy shops and rooftops where Algiers’ youth come to dance after an afternoon at the beach. Further west, Oran, the emancipated city, stands out as a city at a crossroads. A port where sharing and freedom of expression have become a tradition, and where today an air of freedom and youth prevails. Not far away, Tlemcen is surely the most Moroccan of Algerian cities – music, cuisine and geology blend together harmoniously there. And there is also Béjaïa, in the Mediterranean; Constantine, further east; Annaba and the coast, all the way to the Tunisian border; and Bou Saâda, the closest oasis to the capital, gateway to the Sahara. A journey through northern Algeria holds many surprises.
