Ten raisons to visit Tunisia: Whether you are a history buff who loves visiting
archaeological and historic places or a classic vacationer who is in
for some adventure on a foreign place, Tunisia is the place for you.
From the beautiful beaches to the momentous landmarks, you will surely
find that Tunisia is yet another great place in Northern Africa to
visit. Here are some places that you have to visit.
- Tunisia' Coastal Farmlands: The
known Atlas Mountains divide Tunisia into two - the crop-yielding and
the barren region. You will find the coastal farmlands of Tunisia to be
surprisingly heterogeneous, meaning you won't see the same site twice.
If you think farmlands are boring, wait until you visit Tunisia's
farmlands.
- Saharan Oases: Tunisia covers a part of the
Sahara, the largest in the world. Because only the edge of Sahara is
covered by Tunisia, Saharan Oases are abundant in the place. Get a
glimpse of the Saharan life by going to Tunisia's Saharan Oases.
- Beaches in Tunisia: The
best beaches in Tunisia are found in Jarbah and Hammament. Because of
Tunisia's coastal position, many beaches can be found in the place. The
kind of experience you will have in Tunisia's beaches is bound to be
one of a kind because of the hot weather condition.
- Ancient City of Carthage: Tunisia
was founded by Carthagians - Phoenician traders who eventually settled
into the land and built their own city there. Until now, the vestiges
of the Ancient City of Carthage still stand strong. If you are into
history, you will surely love the sight of it.
- Roman ruins at Northeastern Tunisia: Once
upon a time, Tunisia was under the rule of the Roman Empire. A visit to
Dongya and El Djem will have you enraptured as you see the splendor of
Roman architecture. Make sure that you visit the Amphitheater, which
was built as early as the 3rd A.D.
- Fortified Granaries in Tunisia: To
protect their crops from invading nomads from nearby lands, the early
people of Tunisia built granaries of impressive architectural design
and structure. Until now, these granaries still stand strong and, in
fact, have been visited by tourists all around the world. You will
surely be impressed with the splendor of Tunisian architecture.
- Tunis Panorama: After
having treated yourself to a multitude of history trips, you ought to
visit the capital of Tunisia, Tunis. Tunis Panorama is very well unlike
other capital cities as you will feel as if you are in two places at
once. Tunis is divided into two areas - the Muslim quarter associated
with narrow and meandering streets and the European quarter with the
capacious streets built during the occupation of French in Tunis.
- Mosque of Sidi Sahib: If
you are interested in matters of religion, you would love Tunisia's
mosque of Sidi Sahib. It is the resting place of Sidi Sahib, a known
associate of the founder of Islam faith, Muhammad. Religion buffs as
well as pilgrims all over the place flock to this special place of
Islam.
- Rediscovery of Faith: Most people who have been
to Tunisia claim that they have gained a renewed sense of faith.
Because the majority of the Tunisian people are Muslims, you will
certainly find your faith in the front line. Tunisia is the place to go
if you want to have peace and quiet as well as answers to your
questions of religion.
- Tunisian Market: Though the
products of Tunisia are not as popular as other African products, you
are bound to purchase a lot of cheap items in Tunisia, most especially
in Tunis. Tunis is a commercial port. Its strategic location has
allowed a variety of goods to be sold at a thrifty price.
