Last spring, our class visited the Casbah of Algiers. It is an old city on a hill overlooking the sea. UNESCO listed it as a World Heritage Site in 1992. Our guide told us that people used to live in big houses with courtyards and fountains. We walked through narrow streets and visited the Ketchaoua Mosque. At the end of the day, we bought souvenirs and took many photos. It was an unforgettable trip.
