Promoting local tourism development by rehabilitating natural and archaeological sites in Batna Province, Algeria

Tourism features are essential for tourist attraction and tourism development. Attention and promotion are among the most important reasons for their preservation due to frequent use. In this study, we review the province of Batna, a region with a tourist and historical dimension, as it is considered a tourist destination through its many landmarks. The Roman archaeological city is in Timgad, which is classified as a global heritage site by the United Nations. It is also home to the shrine of Imadghassen, which is the second oldest landmark in North Africa for the sleepy civilization. The province of Batna is also available on the Koudiet Lemdouar Dam, considered a tourist attraction area that allows tourism preparation to make it a place for the arrival of local and foreign tourists. The study also relied on statistical analysis to study the elements of tourism development in the region and establish a tourism project proposed by the researchers. This is done by studying the economic feasibility in terms of the financial returns it provides, which helps achieve sustainable tourism development in the province of Batna.
