Jardin d’Essai

Nestled in the central Hamma district of Algiers, Jardin d’Essai is a lush botanical garden that showcases over 1,000 plant species. Established with a rich Mediterranean backdrop, the garden features bubbling fountains and shaded paths, providing a serene escape from the bustling capital. Its verdant landscape, which once doubled as a jungle in the Hollywood film Tarzan of the Apes, offers visitors a tranquil setting. The garden’s bayside location also affords excellent views, making it a perfect spot for a leisurely stroll or a moment of quiet reflection.
