Algeria
Roman ruins at Timgad and Djemila open many of the articles in this category, since Algeria archaeological depth often surprises readers who know the country only from headlines. Coverage extends through the Algiers casbah, the coastal cities of Oran and Annaba, the Mzab valley with its Mozabite towns, and the Sahara around Tamanrasset and the Tassili n Ajjer rock art.
Cultural pieces handle Berber traditions, the Arabic and Tamazight language layers, and the French colonial period that still shapes the city architecture. Practical material covers the visa rules that have moved several times, the realities of independent versus guided travel in the south, and the food traditions that share roots with Moroccan and Tunisian kitchens but follow their own line.
