Abstract
The concept of tourism is no longer limited to travel with the aim of seeing other places distinguished by different cultures and customs only. Rather, it has expanded to make tourism more practiced in cities within a new concept, which is "urban tourism", which represents the approach taken by most governments in strengthening their cities to be distinguished in finding urban tourism projects, with new urban and architectural designs, through which they reflect images of tourism investments in cities. In this context, we will highlight the city of Setif, considered one of the largest cities of Algeria in the eastern highlands, in order to clarify the various major urban and functional transformations resulting from the implementation of numerous urban projects (hotel chain, large shopping centers, tramway project, etc.), as well as to reorganize various urban functions within it, this has made it possible to provide many leisure spaces and its layout, to attract many tourists coming to the city, in particular with ease of movement towards it. This has led the city of Setif to offer many opportunities which are necessary to develop its urban tourism. We will try to highlight the different urban mutations that have affected the city of Setif in various economic, social and urban areas, to discover all the problems that hamper the development of urban tourism in the city, based on descriptive approaches and quantitative and certain tactical techniques, as well as all the references and resources available on the theme of research and its spatial field, on the basis of which certain recommendations likely to pose challenges can be visualized, thanks to it, a strategy global can be developed to improve the city so that it becomes a destination for urban tourism locally and internationally.
