Bouira Province, Administrative province in northern Algeria
Bouira Province is an administrative region in northern Algeria that spans varied landscapes featuring mountains, valleys, and agricultural plains. Twelve districts and forty-five municipalities divide this territory into smaller administrative units.
The province was established as an independent administrative region in 1974 following a reorganization of the former territories of Médéa and Tizi-Ouzou. This administrative restructuring was part of a national reform that reshaped Algeria's governance following independence.
The province contains forty-five municipalities where residents maintain agricultural traditions, particularly in olive cultivation and local food production.
The province is accessible through national roads including the RN5 and RN30 highways that link its districts and connect to major cities. Travelers can navigate between settlements using these established routes that provide basic orientation throughout the region.
Two dams, Koudiat Acerdoune and Tilesdit, supply water to multiple regions and shape the province's water management. These structures are essential for agriculture and drinking water supply across the territory.
