Article History

Tizi Ouzou, town, northern Algeria, in the Great Kabylie mountain region. It lies in a narrow valley of the Wadi Tizi Ouzou, separated from the Wadi Sébaou valley by Mount Beloua. Named for the flowering broom (ouzou) that grows in the pass (tizi) connecting the two valleys, Tizi Ouzou was built by the Turks and enlarged by the French. The town is a regional trade centre noted for basketry; it is the site of the Algerian Institute of Hotel and Tourist Technology. Olives, figs, and grapes are processed there. Pop. (1998) 77,475; (2008) 104,312.
