More About Oran
Oran is the second largest city in Algeria, it is an industrial, cultural and educational centre for the country.
Though part of it is covered by high-rise apartment buildings and ordinary homes, there are older parts that make for interesting sight seeing. The Great Mosque built in 1769 is a good place to start. It is open to the public which is quite unusual in this part of the world. The Marabout Sidi Mohammed El Haouri is a very good example of Andalusian architecture. For all things historical, the Demaegth Museum has exhibitions that span thousands of years. The Cathedral de Sacre Coeur is a beautiful old building that has been converted into a public library.
Oran is a coastal town but the beaches in the immediate vicinity of the city are not terribly good. However a short trip away from the hustle and bustle will leave you with miles of beautiful sand and refreshing sea water. It may be a bit out of the way, but Oran is a great place to visit while exploring Algeria.

Oran Tourism
Oran is the most important city of the west of Algeria. Oran's major claim to fame is the fact that it is the home of Rai music. Almost all great singers (Khaled, Cheb Mami, Faudel) are from Oran.
The town was founded by Andalusian seamen in AD937 and flourished under Zianid rule, developing strong trading ties with Spain, which eventually led to Spanish occupation from 1509 to 1708 when Oran was captured by Ottoman forces. The Spanish recaptured the city two years later but withdrew after an earthquake destroyed most of the city in 1790.
Oran has numerous hotels in all categories, from luxury to basic, as well as many restaurants offering Algerian specialities and other foods. Tourists will also find a variety of cinemas, arts centres, the regional theatre, an open-air theatre, the Museum, the historic city centre of Oran, the district of Sidi El Houari, the municipal gardens, Médina Djedida with its artisanal products, the cathedral, Djebel Murdjadjo, and nearby seaside resorts. International airport Es-Senia is 7.4 miles from the town centre. One can also reach Oran by ferries from the ports of Marseilles, Sète, Alicante and Almería, via the national company Algérie Ferries.
Nowadays Oran is a very busy port and city. There are a lot of things to do and see in town. The city centre coastline (front de mer) is the ideal place to hang out with friends, drink mint tea and have an ice cream.
