Tipaza strengthens ties with American city Lawrence through twinning project

The province of Tipaza, located west of the capital, is welcoming a delegation from the American city of Lawrence today to implement a twinning project initiated by the Algerian Presidency. This initiative serves as a token of appreciation for the warm welcome received by the Algerian national team and its thousands of supporters in the U.S. during the 2026 World Cup. The partnership seeks to deepen bilateral cooperation, leveraging Tipaza's unique assets, including UNESCO-listed historical sites like the Royal Mausoleum of Mauritania and various Roman ruins. The region features 123 kilometers of coastline, five ports, and 170,000 hectares of fertile agricultural land. Beyond its tourism and farming potential, Tipaza has developed into a major higher education hub, hosting numerous prestigious national schools and research centers in cities like Koléa and Bou Ismaïl.
