EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the historical charm and beauty of Algiers Harbour, Algeria, as it appeared over a century ago in 1906. The Penon, a picturesque feature of the harbour, stands proudly in the foreground, its imposing silhouette framed by the clear blue waters of the Mediterranean Sea. The Penon, or the 'Rock,' is a natural fortification that has played a significant role in the city's rich history. Algiers, the largest city in Algeria and the country's former capital, has a complex and intriguing past. Founded by the Phoenicians in the 3rd century BC, it has been ruled by various civilizations, including the Romans, the Vandals, the Byzantines, the Arabs, the Ottomans, and the French. The city's diverse cultural heritage is reflected in its architecture, cuisine, and traditions. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, with the traditional wooden boats moored at the harbour, their sails rolled up, and the bustling activity of the fishermen and merchants. The narrow streets and whitewashed houses of the old city can be seen in the background, adding to the scene's authenticity. The Penon, with its ancient fortifications and the lighthouse that stands atop, has been a symbol of Algiers' resilience and strength. It has withstood numerous attacks and invasions throughout history, making it a cherished landmark for the people of Algiers and a must-visit destination for tourists. This photograph, taken over a century ago, transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate the historical and cultural significance of Algiers Harbour and the Penon. It is a reminder of the city's rich history and the enduring beauty of its natural and architectural wonders.
