Bab El Oued, Coastal commune along Mediterranean Sea in Algiers Province, Algeria.
The neighborhood extends across 43 square miles along the northern coast of Algiers, featuring white buildings on terraced hillsides facing the Mediterranean Sea.
During the Algerian War in March 1962, the area experienced significant changes through the siege of Bab el Oued, leading to demographic transformations.
The neighborhood maintains strong maritime traditions through its fishing activities, local seafood markets, and connections to Mediterranean maritime practices.
Multiple transportation routes connect the district to central Algiers, with regular bus services operating between major commercial and residential zones.
The tomb of scholar Abd al-Rahman al-Thalibi, constructed in 1470, sits on a hillside overlooking the neighborhood as a testament to regional scholarship.
