Overview
onstantine, nicknamed “the City of Bridges”, is a true masterpiece of open-air history. Few people know that it takes its name from Emperor Constantine I and that it was the ancient capital of Numidia, Cirta. Built on an impressive limestone block and crossed by a spectacular canyon, the city is connected by numerous bridges that offer breathtaking views.
Getting lost in its iconic neighborhoods is a journey back in time. The Ottoman Casbah, in the heart of the medina, houses the sumptuous Palais du Bey, while the Bardo district evokes the passage of the French colonial era. Constantine is not only a city to visit, it is an experience to live: its history, unique architecture and majestic panoramas make it one of the most fascinating cities in the world.
