Tunisia Tourism

Nestled in North Africa, Tunisia is a hidden gem waiting to be discovered by travelers seeking a unique and unforgettable vacation experience. From its stunning beaches to its hidden cities and rich cultural heritage, Tunisia offers a wealth of attractions for those looking to explore a country steeped in history and beauty.

One of the main draws of Tunisia is its beautiful beaches, which offer a perfect blend of sun, sand, and sea. Whether you're looking for a secluded spot to relax and unwind or a vibrant stretch of coastline with plenty of water sports and activities, Tunisia has something for everyone. The beaches of Hammamet, Sousse, and Djerba are particularly popular with tourists, known for their crystal-clear waters and soft golden sands.

For those looking to venture off the beaten path, Tunisia is home to a number of hidden cities waiting to be explored. The ancient city of Kairouan, with its winding streets and stunning mosques, offers a glimpse into Tunisia's rich past. The cliffside village of Sidi Bou Said, with its whitewashed buildings and panoramic views of the Mediterranean, is a true hidden gem that shouldn't be missed.

But Tunisia isn't just about beaches and hidden cities – it's also a playground for adventure seekers. The Sahara Desert, which covers much of southern Tunisia, offers a wealth of opportunities for those looking to experience the thrill of dune bashing, camel trekking, and camping under the stars. The desert town of Tozeur, with its palm groves and unique architecture, is a great base for exploring the desert and experiencing the traditional Bedouin way of life.

No trip to Tunisia would be complete without sampling the country's traditional cuisine. Tunisian food is a delicious blend of Mediterranean, Arabic, and Berber influences, with dishes like couscous, brik, and tagine featuring prominently on menus across the country. Street food is also a must-try, with vendors selling everything from spicy harissa to sweet makroud (date pastries) on bustling street corners.

Tunisia's rich culture is also on full display in its historical sites, which offer a window into the country's storied past. The ancient Roman ruins of Carthage, with their crumbling columns and impressive amphitheater, are a must-see for history buffs. The medina of Tunis, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is a labyrinth of narrow alleyways and bustling souks where you can immerse yourself in Tunisian culture and tradition.

In conclusion, Tunisia offers a wealth of attractions for travelers looking to explore a country that is as beautiful as it is historic. From its stunning beaches to its hidden cities, Sahara adventures, traditional food, rich culture, and historical sites, Tunisia has something for everyone. So why not pack your bags and discover the magic of this North African gem for yourself? Your next unforgettable vacation awaits in Tunisia.

The Decorated Bricks of Tozeur

By
Materials and Local Brickworks From Destination-Tunis.fr (“Visite d’un atelier de fabrication de la brique de Tozeur”): Clay source : The clay used for Tozeur bricks is extracted from areas about 7 km outside the city, near the salt lake Chott El Jerid . Mixture : The recipe is simple but precise: roughly two-thirds clay + one-third sand , mixed with water to achieve the right consistency. Fuel : For firing the bricks, craftsmen use palm wood (cuttings and offshoots from local palm groves), which gives the bricks their distinctive warm color. Production steps: Mixing : Clay, sand, and water are combined manually into a dense paste. Molding : Wooden molds (kept damp so the paste doesn’t stick) are filled, smoothed, and carefully removed to create clean blocks. Drying : The raw bricks are sun-dried, often dusted with ash to prevent rapid cracking. Firing : Once dried, the bricks are fired in traditional oven...

Kairouan

By
Kairouan  is one site which probably isn’t covered enough by travel agents, especially when you consider the fact that it’s regarded as the fourth most important holy city for Muslims. It also happens to hold the much-coveted UNESCO World Heritage Site tag and anyone who likes to wander through a mixture of history and culture is advised to pay a visit. Kairouan happens to be home of one of the oldest mosques in the country in the form of the Great Mosque of Obka, while it also holds its own Medina which is ideal for those famous Tunisian souvenirs  With mosques, madrassas, and tombs aplenty, Kairouan has more than its fair share of monuments as the fourth most important city for those of the Muslim faith. The Arabic architecture here is truly inspiring and the skyline is full of skinny minarets and bulky domes. But it's probably the back alleys of the city's Medina that steal the show. With narrow maze-like lanes lined with crumbling colourful houses, Kairouan's old tow...

Medina (Ouled Hadef) / Ouled el-Hadef

By
The Ouled el-Hadef quarter is a district of harmonious appearance built entirely out of brick. The façades of the buildings here are decorated with large geometrical motifs which are reminiscent of tattoos and prints on fabric, an effect created by the way the bricks are placed together. The narrow alleyways, heavy doors and columned porches give Tozeur's old pedestrianised district a distinctly medieval atmosphere. This 14th-century medina has a unique, striking architecture of pale brickwork arranged in relief patterns of endless, rhythmic variation; the easiest way in is from Ave de Kairouan. The families living here come outside to socialise come dusk – strolling at this time is quite special. The medina of Tozeur is basically formed by the neighborhood Ouled el-Hadef, the oldest in the city, which has remained virtually unchanged since the 16 century. It is 50 m from [poi = 160381] Central Market [/ poi], along Av Kairouan. Built in the 14 century to house the Hadef clan, ...
