Algiers and Constantine Crowned Among Africa’s Most Attractive Cities in 2025 — Two Provinces Ready to Convert Visibility into Growth
✍️ BY: Dr. Hana Saada
Algiers – September 2025 – Algeria’s international profile received a tangible boost in 2025 when Algiers and Constantine were singled out among Africa’s most attractive urban centres in the latest Global Cities assessments — recognition that carries real economic and strategic weight for their respective provinces. The ranking reflects investment signals, visitor interest, and the momentum of urban projects, validating long-term public investment and calling for a conversion of visibility into sustained local development.
Algiers — Capital Scale, Strategic Assets, Urgent Tasks
Algiers is more than the national capital: it is Algeria’s principal economic, cultural, and administrative hub, anchoring a metropolitan area of several million people and concentrating the country’s largest port, leading universities, and central government bodies. The city — and the wider Algiers province — is the engine for service industries, finance, higher education, and logistics that serve the whole Maghreb.
Key assets:
-
Demography & administration: Algiers Province encompasses the capital and its suburbs, with a dense population that drives consumption, labor supply, and cultural activity.
-
Cultural heritage: The Casbah, a UNESCO World Heritage site, anchors the city’s historical identity and attracts cultural tourism.
-
Education & human capital: The University of Algiers and other higher-education institutions supply large cohorts of graduates, supporting the knowledge economy.
-
Transport & logistics: Algiers hosts the busiest container and general-cargo port and is advancing metro and airport projects that will expand capacity and improve multimodal connectivity.
Algiers combines heritage with public infrastructure investment. The metro and tramway expansions, airport modernization, and port activity provide a platform to attract business and event tourism.
Constantine — Heritage, Connectivity, and a Distinct Tourism Brand
Constantine’s inclusion among Africa’s most attractive cities rests on a complementary set of assets: extraordinary topography, historic heritage, modern bridge engineering, and a central role in eastern Algeria’s economy. Known as “the City of Bridges,” Constantine offers dramatic urban landscapes and cultural tourism potential.
Key assets:
-
Population & role: Third-largest urban agglomeration in Algeria, serving as the commercial and academic hub for eastern provinces.
-
Iconic infrastructure: Bridges like Sidi Rached and Salah Bey Viaducts combine tourism appeal with functional connectivity.
-
Air links & accessibility: Mohamed Boudiaf International Airport connects Constantine domestically and seasonally internationally.
-
Cultural inventory: Roman and Ottoman heritage, museums, and palaces enhance cultural tourism.
