in the direction of Ben Djerrah is significant, seeing that it is the only other municipality in the district. It is the site of the
forest of ''Aïn Séfra'' (named after the main village in the forest, unrelated to the
eponymous larger city), as well as an important military garrison. It is connected by a Province Highway to southwestern Guelma, as well as by another shorter road connecting it to the inner suburbs of Guelma.
