10 Architectural Buildings in Tunis That You Shouldn't Miss
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!

Being on this avenue on a Sunday evening in October gave us one of this trip's highlights. The results of the presidential run-off had just been announced and thousands came here to celebrate. Very special to happen to be here at that time.
