Algeria: Algiers, Rue Boulabah, late 19th century.

The Casbah (Al Qasbah , ‘the Citadel’), district of Algiers is founded on the ruins of old Icosium. It is a small city which, built on a hill, goes down towards the sea, divided between the High City and the Low City. There are houses and and mosques dating from the 17th century, as well as labyrinths of lanes and houses that are both picturesque and confusing to the outsider.
