The region has a predominantly Mediterranean climate, with dry, hot summers and mild, rainy winters, and is surrounded by hilly and valley terrain.

Traditional handicrafts such as pottery and weaving have been preserved, and folklore festivals often feature Berber music and dance. Some of the historic buildings are a blend of North African Arab and French colonial styles.
