  1. 5.0 Emir Abdelkader Mosquée (95 reviews)
    - Beautiful and peaceful
    Religious Sites
    Emir Abdelkader Mosquée image
    It took me about half an hour to walk to the mosque from the town centre. I noticed that the modern looking tram network can take you there too if you don’t fancy the walk. It’s one of the most beautiful mosques I have seen anywhere in Africa. The grounds are lovely too and so quiet and peaceful (and litter free). I didn’t go inside because I was wearing shorts, but I understand that the interior is also most impressive. See more..
  2. 4.5 Pont Sidi M’Cid (114 reviews)
    - Great views
    Bridges
    Pont Sidi M’Cid image
    This bridge is very accessible, being a short walk from the town centre. Cars can also use it but when I was there, traffic wasn’t an issue. Fabulous views in all directions. See more..

    Monument Aux Morts image
    Constantine is a lovely city with its beautiful valley and many bridges that cross it. We spent a lovely evening just walking on the bridges and taking photos. Very few tourists, no hassle. Recommended. See more..
  4. 4.5 Palais d'Ahmed Bey (59 reviews)
    - A must do in Constantine
    Friday: Historic Sites • Architectural Buildings
    Palais d'Ahmed Bey image
    Situated in the town centre, this building is very easy to get to. Despite being surrounded by an incredibly busy number of streets, it seems very peaceful and quiet once inside. Beautiful tilling and paintings on every wall. Although the place is very charming, I couldn’t help thinking it’s a pity someone can’t make a large financial investment to get the place fully renovated. See more..
  5. 4.5 Pont Sidi Rached (35 reviews)
    - Magnificent bridge
    Bridges

    Probably the most beautiful bridge I've ever seen. The views of the bridge are tremendous. It was a great joy to cross it several times. See more..
  6. 4.5 Tiddis Roman Ruins (24 reviews)
    - Better than expected
    Spent 1-2 hours Historic Sites • Ancient Ruins • Architectural Buildings
    Tiddis Roman Ruins image
    This site is just over 30 minutes away from Constantine by car. I paid a taxi driver to take me and hang around to take me back to Constantine. Public transport probably isn’t an option. The surrounding scenery is quite beautiful, at least it was on the sunny day in April when I visited. The ruins cover quite a large area, but there were only about twenty other people there when I visited so it was very quiet and peaceful. I enjoyed waking around the hilly grounds taking in the ruins. I guess some people would feel the need for a guide or a guide book but I was content to just absorb the views. It’s probably staying the obvious but I advise sensible footwear as the terrain is quite rocky/hilly. See more..
  7. 4.5 Théâtre Régional de Constantine (11 reviews)
    - very beautiful theatre

    Neighborhoods
    La Medina image
    The medina (Locally called Swiqa) is the heart of the old Constantine, it's a place full of life and marchants of traditional food and sweets. Better you visit it with a guide, because you can easily get lost there. See more..
  9. 4.5 Mellah Slimane Footbridge (3 reviews)
    - A spectacular spot
    Spent < 1 hour Points of Interest & Landmarks
    Mellah Slimane Footbridge image
    Constantine, a city straddling a deep and narrow river canyon, is a city of bridges. My favourite is Slimane Mellah footbridge. On one end freely accessible, on the other connected to an elevator - or ascenseur, as they call it in French - it's one thing in Constantine that shouldn't be skipped. If you are not prone to vertigo, cross it and around the mispoint of the bridge span you'll be treated to spectacular views of the city and canyon in three directions. See more..
