On the evening of the 21 May, Algeria was stuck by its worst
earthquake in 23 years. More than 2,000 people were killed and more
than 9,000 injured. Many homes were destroyed in the initial quake
and thousands more were damaged and made uninhabitable.
The Fascinating City of Algiers
Algeria is not a hot spot on the tourist map, but I have been
fortunate enough to call the city of Algiers my home for a time. I
wanted to share my images of this underexplored yet fascinating
city.
