The west around Oran and Tlemcen, heartland of Algeria's Andalusian heritage.

Béjaïa is a coastal province in Kabylie where the Djurdjura mountains plunge straight into the Mediterranean. It's known for Gouraya National Park, the clifftop Cap Carbon lighthouse, the scenic Corniche beaches, deep Kabyle (Amazigh) culture, the dramatic Kherrata gorges, and a layered history — including its medieval role in transmitting Arabic numerals to Europe and the pivotal Soummam Congress of 1956.

Oran is Algeria's vibrant second city — a Mediterranean port on the west coast with a strong Spanish and Andalusian imprint, the birthplace of raï music, the Spanish-built Santa Cruz fort above the bay, a lively seafront, and easy access to the Andalusian heritage of Tlemcen and the western beaches.
