The city is framed by a deep ravine and has a dramatic appearance. The city is very picturesque with a number of bridges and a viaduct crossing the ravine. The city center bridges: this city is very famous for 8 bridges (one of which is, the Devil's Bridge, is nothing more than a thin piece of wood), especially the Gantaret El Hibal (also called Sidi M'Cid) bridge which is the 2nd highest suspended bridge in the world. It's a perfect place to do a bungee jump. Also the pedestrian or have great views. the Nearby are the Roman city of Tiddis and the megalithic monuments and burial grounds at Djebel Mazala Salluste.

Drink

Tea with mint. Usually called (Atay) by locals. Leben. A kind of heavy milk, it looks like liquified yoghurt.

Stay safe

Constantine is somewhat considered a safe place. And common sense will alleviate 99% of problems: try to look as little like a tourist as possible, do not flash large quantities of cash, and so on. Faux guides are much less of a problem here than in the rest of Algeria and are limited mainly to the area around the city. It is inadvisable to walk alone in Constantine at night. Solo women, as in all Algerian cities, should dress modestly to avoid harassment (which almost always consists of lewd comments, but nothing physical).

Pick-pocketing and motor-drive-by theft seem more to be a problem here—hide your valuables!
