Lost in the Medina of Algiers 🇩🇿 

I miss those medina streets ❤

من شحال ونا نتمنى نزور الجزائر ان شاء الله كاش نهار نزورها ونشوف خاوتنا الجزائريين، تحية من اليمن 🇾🇪🇩🇿

The Casbah always reminds me about the great movie: “The Battle of Algiers” … Prayers to all those who died so that people, today, can enjoy the streets of peace and freedom

Visit ghardia you will see different country ❤nice video and free palestine 🇵🇸🇩🇿

So the ottomans came in Algeria in 1515 until 1830 ,the casbah was build in 960 by Bologhine Ibn Ziri "an algerian military and head state (before the casbah there were a romain city called icosium)

سبحان الله قال لها يوجد علم فلسطين و الجزاير فقط !!!!

You are always welcome here in Algeria 🇩🇿🤍🤍🤍

Actually it was built first by the Algerian "Zirid Dynasty", then it was very prosperous during the Ottoman period.

القصبة تعود لدولة زيرية و بنيت من قبل الزيريين و مصنفة في اليونيسكو طراز زيري مع قدوم العثمانيين امتزجت الثقافات بين طراز الزيري و العثماني ولكن الغالب هي طراز زيري

Algerian consulate please give Gladys and Chris a forever algerian visa right now

Hello, guys. I have a message that my friend Myriam sent to clarify that she is not a tour guide. She was so gentle and kind to let me film while we hang out at downtown Algiers. Here is the message: Hello brothers and sisters, i would like to kindly explain that i am not a tourist guide at all. I met Gladys by chance in a taxi and the interaction with her was so lovely. We agreed to meet and i showed her all that i know. My facts about history are not exact, i have given her information based on the general ideas that i already had. I apologize for any miscommunication! Thank you. مرحبا إخوتي وأخواتي، أود أن أوضح بكل لطف أنني لست مرشدًة سياحيًة على الإطلاق. التقيت بجلاديس بالصدفة في سيارة أجرة وكان التفاعل معها لطيفًا جدًا. اتفقنا على اللقاء وأريتها كل ما أعرفه. معلوماتي عن التاريخ ليست دقيقة، لقد تكلمت بناءً على الأفكار العامة التي كانت لدي سابقا. أعتذر عن أي سوء تفاهم! شكرًا لكم.

The beautiful thing is to discover that there are many Algerians who are proficient in communicating in English. viva l'Algerie

The green color in the Algerian flag symbolizes the greenness of the earth, red for the blood of the martyrs, and white for peace

Algeria is so soft and magical. People are so good and life is so sweet , no stress.

ماشاء الله على سكان العاصمة وخاصة القصبة العريقة ناس محترمة ومثقفة وقنوعة شكرا لكم لقد شرفتنونا.

Beautiful country ❤

20:30 In the 9th century both Algerian ( called zirids which is our name in algerian Dzair) both our Algerian muslims and jews lived together, so in the doors check the symbols to know which relgion the ones who lived there followed.

am proud of the seller who spoke to them in English, which impressed me that the Algerians also speak English in addition to French. 

انه بناء زيري امازيغي جزائري الأصل هادا النوع من العمارة لايوجد في الترك

you should go to Tipaza is beautiful is about 40 minutes from the capital is lots to see romans ruins and is sea side

It was built by the Zirides on the ruins of the ancient site that dates back to the Romans and Phoenicians, long before the arrival of the Turks. For information, it continues to bear the name of the Zirides, just as we Algerians call ourselves 'D'Ziriyine', a word composed of 'D', a Berber preposition that means 'of' or 'the', and 'Ziriyines', which is the name of the dynasty and the Ziride people. This makes the name that the locals use, 'D'Ziriyine', literally translate to 'The Zirides'. This name transformed into Arabic as 'Al Jazayariyine', and then into other languages as 'Algeria', 'Algérie', etc.(That’s why there’s the famous 'DZ' that many people don’t understand how it is related to Algeria).The capital is called 'D'Zayer el Assima' Which means Algiers, the capital. Oh yes, another piece of information: the capital 'D'Zayer' still carries the heritage of its Ziride founders, particularly Bologhine ibn Ziri ibn Menad, who made it the capital of the Ziriyines. A popular neighborhood still bears his name, Bologhine.

The white on the Algerian flag represents peace ,Welcome to Algeria!

Im discovering my country's cities from foreigners while I am in Algeria as well

Hola eres muy dulce como la baklawa y tu compañero my simpatico bien venidos en argelia pero hay que visitar timimoun es el disierto de argelia dulce pareja

Dear Algerian Council in New York, won't you please give Gladys not just a 1 or 2 year visa but an open visa for life. She's so appreciative of so many little things she sees.

In Constantine i recommend for you to visit : The martyr Monument Amir Abdelkader Mosque La Place La brêche And the Bridges they all differ from each other maybe you can find some groupe of adventurers if you want to discover what's under the city That's it

The next destination, I hope, will be Iraq. Thank you all for visiting us in Algeria

Loved your amazing photos on IG, can’t wait to meet you in NYC 🙌

Nice videos, you should’ve taken pictures of all doors in the Casbah, and I advise you to watch the Battle of Algiers movie, it is one of the most influential movies in the history of cinema

It’s nice to see Algerian speaks English well done 👍

Awesome video, greeting from Algiers

You Always welcome here in algeria 🇩🇿🇩🇿🇩🇿🇩🇿🇩🇿 i wish you and cris had happy days here

ماشاء الله اغلبهم يجيدون الانجليزية ❤

You should watch the Battle of Algiers! Its a classic and the most famous movie about the Algerian independence war. Also, its free on youtube! You'll recognize the streets you walked on in the movie, I think you'll definitely enjoy it :)

Hospitality is the virtue of a beautiful soul who holds the whole universe together through the bonds of humanity. Viva Algéria

Welcome to Algeria, your photography of the place was wonderful

19:45 Actually, you gave the women 500 DA, and they returned a 200 DA coin to you. On the other side of that coin, it is marked "50," which commemorates the 50th anniversary of independence. Although you mentioned 50, it's actually a 200 DA coin. Therefore, you didn't spend 450 DA ($2); instead, you paid a total of 300 DA ($1.30). ;)

Welcome to Algeria ❤

So glade to see you her in Algeria !🇩🇿 😊 welcome ❤

Great video ❤

The strength of the culture of the Algerian people. The waitress is fluent in three languages ​​and fluent in English

Tu es très gentille,la casbah a été construite bien avant les ottomans c'est une ville antique et ce qu'on voit aujourd'hui c'est la ville construite au X siècle par les Zirides des autochtones berbères ensuite les ottomans sont venus et ils ont apporté leur touche architecturale et avec les français beaucoup de constructions ont été détruites pour construire le nouvelle ville européenne en avant de la casbah pour la cacher

Im so proud of m'y ppl ho speaks english incredble

You need to visit Bejaia it’s like heaven on earth there is so much to see there

36:27 behind you there's two words in Arabic بن زيري it's the name of the real builders of casbah The zirids and buluggin ben ziri also the ones who bulit granda in Andalous this was before the creation of the ottomans themselves

Hi Gladys and Chris, happy to see you visit our country or at least a very small part of it ;) you missed some spots in Algiers such as Bastion 23, la pêcherie, the museums at the martyr memorial, Bardo museum, Bouchaoui Forest, … and a lot of other cities such as Constantine, Bedjaia, mountains, Cherea Forest, Kabylie villages, Annaba, el Kala, Sahara which is insane. Well hope you will come again and stay longer. And please Algerian ambassy give them a long term visa ;)

Algeria welcomed you so well and it suits you too ❤️ you’re a kind soul maybe that’s why Algeria likes you

I think the lady serving tea wanted to say "orange blossom flower extract" (called locally mazhar, which translate into water of the flower). To be Fair many people are confusing orange blossom flower with rose water, including me when I first was looking for it here in London. The two are totally different and worth noting that the orange blossom water adds great flavour, aroma and taste when cooking sweets and cakes. Beware though when you get it in the USA or here in the UK, from a supermarket, it’s likely the concentrated version with alcohol added and it doesn’t quite do the job. You want to go to an Algerian shop, Turkish or Middle Eastern shop and ask for Mazhar. If you buy it in a big bottle then most likely it’s already diluted so you use it as is, but if it’s a tiny bottle then it’s concentrated and you may want to dilute it by mixing it with water. Try it in your cake cooking, it really does add a lot of flavour. Enjoy your stay there. I haven’t been for 8 years and your video does make me want to visit again..

من المغرب ما أحلى الشعب الجزائري ..تبا للسياسة .

I Love your long form videos!

44:26 I don't know how you didnt notice but Algiers it self is a mountain 😂 the buldings are on the top of a mountain that's why there are many stairs

37:00 Because it is a real casbah where ppl live , it's not new nor made for tourism as in some countries, so it belongs to the people not the government. I hope the government still offers help in renovating it tho

Thank you for visiting our beloved country. You are welcome at all times

Amazing I really love your videos I never watch vlogs but you and Chris are very very good at it. I hope you enjoyed your time in my country we would love to see you again. We don't get too many tourists or hear someone speak English in our streets so I hope you guys didn't get bothered by the stares lol 😅 it's just out of curiosity ❤️

Welcome anytime ❤🇩🇿

Casbah was built by local inhabitants ( Amazigh) by a person called Bologhine Ibn Ziri in 960, not by Ottomans. When Ottomans came the city was already there....please correct the information !!!

Che donna bella e semplice. Ti amo moltissimo e ti auguro un bellissimo viaggio nel mio paese🇨🇵🇮🇹🇩🇿

A very beautiful video, the way you deal with people, as well as your stopping in very sensitive and very historical areas in the city of the Kasbah, which is called the Big Citadel. It is interesting what you did, my beautiful lady, but let me tell you that you have not seen anything yet in the continent of Algeria, and this is what I saw in the Kasbah, drop by drop. Small from the sea, welcome to the continent of Algeria

The kasbah is not Ottoman.. but centuries before the Ottomans.. It is rather Numidian.. The Romans demolished it then rebuilt by "Belkin bin Ziri"930.A.J.C..but The alliance with the Ottomans dates back to 1518.. This architecture does not exist in Türkiye... neither in history nor today

You are the best Welcome in algeria 🇩🇿💝 Try to visit constantine And sahara

من لقصبة لدرب السلطان حب وخاوة من زمان 💚♥️🏐

I really liked your visit to the kasbah of algiers. welcome !

Nice vlogs,👌❤❤ You must visit Béjaïa You welcome 🤗

The medina was built before the ottoman occupation

I am very happy to see you back in Algeria. Welcome.

You are also so kind thanks for your kindness

Wolcome to algerie

Algériens instruits mâcha allah ...français anglais.....wallah ça rend fier. Je demande aux jeunes algériens d'apprendre le chinois aussi......ça sera utile dans 50 ans.

Everyone talked about history and forgot the woman who spoke fluently with the beautiful lady in English, and this is a beautiful thing and I am proud of you because we have begun to speak English fluently after French. It is considered that the Algerian Ashab speaks 3 languages: Arabic, French and English. Welcome, beautiful lady and gentleman, to your adopted country.😘

You know why we are not a tourist country because we hide all of that beauty for us and for the good people like you seara🇩🇿🤍thnx for comiing✨️
