EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Marshal Foch Square and Santa Cruz Hills, Oran, Algeria - A Blend of Colonial Past and Natural Beauty" This evocative photograph captures the essence of Oran, Algeria in the 1920s, with Marshal Foch Square at its heart and the majestic Santa Cruz Hills as a backdrop. The image transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the rich history and allure of this North African city. Marshal Foch Square, named after the French Marshal Ferdinand Foch, is a bustling hub of activity. The square is adorned with tall, stately trees providing shade, while the vibrant colors of the French colonial architecture add a sense of charm and elegance. The square's central statue of Marshal Foch stands proudly, a testament to the French presence in Algeria during that era. Beyond the square, the Santa Cruz Hills rise majestically, their lush greenery contrasting starkly with the urban landscape below. These hills have been a part of Oran's history for centuries, with the Spanish settlers giving the area its name, Santa Cruz, meaning 'Holy Cross'. The hills offer a welcome respite from the hustle and bustle of the city, providing a tranquil retreat for those seeking a moment of peace and reflection. This photograph is a beautiful reminder of the unique blend of cultures and landscapes that make Oran, Algeria such a fascinating place. The colonial past, the natural beauty of the Santa Cruz Hills, and the vibrant energy of the city come together in this image.
