Overview

Constantine is also recognised as Qasentina and it’s the capital of Constantine Province in the northern part of Algeria. Known as the City of Bridges, Constantine is a picturesque and dramatic city located on a plateau 640 metres above sea level, and almost totally surrounded by dizzying ravines with the Rhumel River flowing through. A city enmeshed in history; Constantine was founded by the Phoenicians who named it Sewa (royal city). It was taken over by Numidia who renamed it Cirta, before it fell to the Romans and later named after Emperor Constantine the Great.

At the same time you will be able to see the old Bab El Kantara Bridge and the majestic Sidi Rached Viaduct from the footbridge's vantage point.

Then we climb up the staircases or take the lift after we cross the footbridge, we continue along the busy rue of Larbi Ben M'Hidi where you can see the Great Mosque of the 11th century from the outside and then sidewind off into cobbled alleyway streets of Souika or the Medina where you are going to explore the small marketplaces that date back to the 16th century, the meat section, the house built during the Fatimid period.
