Promenade de Létang
Promenade Ibn Badis (Létang)
A seaside garden promenade built in the 19th century below the walls of the New Castle, with shaded paths and viewpoints over the harbor.
The Létang Promenade (now the Ibn Badis Promenade) was built along the cliffs beneath the New Castle fortress in 1847. It is Oran's oldest park, with palms, fig trees and tropical plants on terraced levels, and stone railings overlook the harbor and bay. It lies on the northeast side of 1st November Square, is free to enter, and works well as part of a walking route along the seafront boulevard.
