Tourism investment for French colonialism in the city of Biskra Medical tourism for examp

Abstract

 Biskra city is widely known for its mineral water spring “Hammam Salihine” that consists of hot thermal water. The latter is characterized by a large proportion of sulphur, chlorine, sodium and magnesium. Given these characteristics, this thermal water has been used as an efficient cure for many skin diseases. Accordingly, Biskra city has become a destination for medical treatment thanks to the presence of this natural sanatorium. In addition to that, the warm weather of the city, which is a combination of spring and autumn, besides its breath-taking landscapes have encouraged the wealthy and European traders who were tired of the cold winter in their countries, to pay the city a visit seeking comfort and cure.
