The Diverse Culture of Khenchela

Khenchela is a town in North Eastern Algeria that is known for its culturally diverse population. The town was originally inhabited by Berber tribes and later came under the French colonial rule, which left its mark on the town's architecture and urban planning. The town's people are predominantly Muslim, but there are also Catholic and Jewish communities. The town has a vibrant market where one can find local artisanal products, including traditional Berber jewelry and carpets. Overall, Khenchela offers a unique cultural experience that is different from other North African towns I've visited.
