    Built to mark the 20th anniversary of Algeria's independence (1982), it symbolizes three major revolutions in industry, land and culture, and is shaped into three slanted palm leaves. Designed by Poles, the tower is 92 meters high and has a viewing layer on top overlooking the port of Algiers and the Mediterranean Sea.

    A place worth spending time in. In addition to the seaside promenade, the museums, characteristic blocks and cafes along the way are all worth experiencing.

    The Royal Tombs of Mauritania Province, also known as the Mausoleum of Christ, is a building from the Numibian period. It is located in the Sidi Rached district of Tipasa Province, Algeria, 60 kilometers west of Algiers Province. It was listed as a World Heritage Site in 1982 and in 2002 by UNESCO. There are lights at night, and you can see it from a distance on the highway, which is very spectacular. This is the largest royal garden tomb in the ancient Egyptian period in West Africa. The most famous one is the Princess Tomb, which is a huge bun-shaped tomb where the daughter of the famous Egyptian queen is buried. After more than 4,000 years, it is basically well preserved. The entire garden covers a large area. Standing on the hilltop of the Princess Tomb, you can overlook the entire area. The scale is grand and the momentum is extraordinary.
