Constantine in pictures.
Constantine perches on a rocky plateau split by the spectacular Rhummel gorge, crossed by a series of soaring bridges that give it the nickname City of Bridges. One of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world, it traces its roots to ancient Cirta, capital of Numidia. The combination of vertiginous cliffs, the famous Sidi M'Cid suspension bridge and Ottoman-era heritage makes it unforgettable.
