The most impressive groups of prehistoric caves in the world are located in Tasli n 'Azer on a vast plateau of 72000 sq.km. of SE Algeria in the Sahara Desert. An open natural museum with numerous prehistoric works of art on the rocks, from the early Neolithic era to the end of the last Ice Age, have been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1982. Most of the works (rock paintings and engraved figures), date back to 9000-10000 years ago and untilnow more than 15,000 engravings had been recognized. In the rock paintings we see women with almost modern dresses and headgear, warriors and shepherds with well-written faces and bodies, while in the paintings the animals dominate. They were discovered in 1933 and the area was named by the Tuareg people ‘nomad tribe’ "The plateau with the rivers". It believed that in the Neolithic era the Sahara landscape was green plains or even savannas, large trees, rivers, lakes and grazing animals and cypress and other forest trees. The archeological site has been designated a national park, a biosphere reserve (cypress) and has been included in the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites as the Tasili n 'Ager National Park.

At Adventure Algeria we organise tours from the Mediterranean coast to the deep south Sahara of Algeria, we cover the magnificent site of Tasili n’Ager and Djanet.

Discover Mediterranean Algiers

Less than three hours from London, yet virtually unknown in the English-speaking world, Algiers is one of the Mediterranean's most mesmerising cities, a captivating mélange of faded French grandeur and neo-Moorish folly crowned by a legendary casbah.

Were "Alger La Blanche" situated on the northern shores of the Mediterranean, this dazzling euphony of blue and white would be one of Europe's most sought-after destinations.

Algerian National Theater Mahieddine Bachtarzi, is a centre for educational and cultural creation set in the old Alger Opera House.

The theatre has been the home of the Algerian National Ballet since 1963.

The opera was built between May 1850 to September 1853 by architects Charles Frédéric Chassériau and Justin Ponsard in a neo-baroque style. It was inaugurated on September 29, 1853, in the presence of Governor General of Algeria, Marshal Jacques Louis Randon, Prefect Charles Lautour-Mézeray and Mayor Jean-Baptiste Vincent de Guiroye.
