Tunisia is a north african country that has a whole host of attractions and things to do. Some of the most famous attractions are Sahara, Roman Amphitheatre, Ennejma Ezzahra Palace, Dar Sebastien - International Cultural Center of Hammamet, El Jem Amphitheatre, Hammamet Medina, Carthage Museum, Ichkeul Lake, etc.
Here’s some of photos I took during my road trip through Tunisia.
Totally agree with @MoniDi , great photos @Asma-Tn and they showcase Tunisia really well. The structures and colors remind me a little of parts of the Greek Islands.
@MoniDi Actually, I’m from Tunisia. I corrected the post’s title in order not to mislead the Local Guides.
I took a short road trip through Tunisia to take some photos.
I recommend you to visit Sidi Bou Said, Carthage, Dar Sebastien in Hammamet, Medina of Hammamet, Djerba, Ain Drahem, Tabarka, Sahara… I also suggest you to take a look at Flaÿou’s products ; you can find some original souvenirs to bring back from Tunisia. And if you’re interested in food, you can eat at La Fabrique in La Marsa (very tasty burgers) or try fine confectionery at Confiserie Layla.
@AdamGT Indeed, Sidi Bou Said is a blue-and-white village which looks a little like Greece.
Thanks for your suggestions! I will try to remember most of the places that you recommend and I will try even harder to visit them once I plan my trip there.
Hello @Asma-Tn those photos were so lovely, now I am adding Tunisia in my bucket list. It looks so much like Greece island of Santorini. Thank you for sharing with us.
What camera or phone do you use? Do you also use a special app to touch up your photos, or you prefer your camera/phone’s build-in functions?
I had a wonderful time in Sidi Bou Said and Hammamet when I visited in June. All that blue of the sea and the charming white-wall houses with blue doors and blinds! It was a magical experience.
I know what you mean, @Asma-Tn, I also work mostly with the built-in functions and filters of my phone. You’ve definitely found the perfect set of functions for your photos!
I went on an organised tour so luckily I got to see quite a few places! I loved the capital of Tunis and I especially enjoyed a jeep safari to the Star Wars Canyon and a visit to a Berber house. My personal highlight was riding a camel into the Sahara Desert and touching the sand!
When I was there in 2015, I only visited Tunis because it was a day trip. We spent time in Sidi Bou Said and also in the old town Medina area. I ate something like a donut, I don’t remember the name but my friends ordered it for me. You can have a look! And you can tell that Sidi Bou Said is in the background.
Then when I visited in 2014, I stayed in Monastir and visited Sousse and Mahdia as well. I went to the beach in Mahdia and also visited El Jem as well!
Thank you for sharing these nice looking carpets. By the way, your post will fit perfectly with the theme of this conversation and this is why I decided to merge both publications in a single thread. Feel free to jump into the discussion if you find it interesting.
