The Botanical Garden Hamma, also known as Jardin d’Essai du Hamma, is a lush oasis nestled in the heart of Algiers, Algeria. Established in 1832, it spans over 58 hectares, making it one of the largest and oldest botanical gardens in the world. The garden is home to a diverse range of flora, with over 1200 species of plants, providing a serene escape from the bustling city life.

One of the main attractions is the zoo, where you can see a variety of animals including monkeys and birds. The garden also houses a fascinating museum of ethnography, showcasing the rich cultural heritage of Algeria. Whether you’re a nature lover or a history buff, the Botanical Garden Hamma is a must-visit.
