Things to do in Tunis, Tunis Governorate: The Best Historic Sites
Founded by the Berbers in the 2nd millennium BCE, the city of Tunis has been controlled by Phoenicians, Romans, Arab Muslims, the Ottomans, the Spanish, the French and the Germans, finally achieving independence as the capital of Tunisia in 1956. This history has made Tunis a mélange of ancient and modern cultures. The medina is a network of narrow alleyways, mosques, mausoleums, palaces and a souq where shoppers haggle over the price of everything from filigreed gold to inexpensive souvenirs.

The yellow, blue and green doors are beautiful and many are quite intricately decorated. They add to the atmosphere of the medina.

Probably our favourite door in the medina. The hotel inside is luxurious and the rooftop restaurant excellent. Next time we will try the spa!

This is one of the gates to the medina, located at the end of Ave Habib Bourguiba on Place de la Victoire. Whenever we walked here there were always street performers entertaining a small crowd.
