Achir is a historic city in the southern foothills of the Tall Atlas Mountains in northern Algeria, about 150 kilometers from the capital city of Algiers. Founded in the 10th century AD, the city was once an important trade hub in North and Central Africa and is known for its rich Berber cultural heritage and ancient Islamic architectural monuments. The local economy is based on traditional agriculture (e.g. olive and grape cultivation) and handicrafts, and it has preserved the typical Maghreb architectural style, with white houses set against blue mosque domes. Asir's unique geographic location makes it a crossroads between desert civilization and Mediterranean culture, attracting tourists interested in the history of North Africa to explore its thousand-year-old city.
