#Drivers drive around Tunisia, North Africa
The ruins of Carthage, once a Mediterranean empire, are now only a remnant of its former glory. However, as a century-old power of workers, its prosperity can still be discerned from the architectural ruins.
We flew to Tunisia from Morocco, and the first attraction we visited in Tunisia was the famous historical site - the ruins of the ancient city of Carthage, which represents the birth and cultural characteristics of Mediterranean civilization.

The Medina of Tunis, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is a maze of narrow alleys. I visited on a rainy day, and the combination of the old cityscape and the overcast sky created a beautifully nostalgic atmosphere.
The capital of Tunisia is Tunis. We flew back to China from here. Tunis is a very nice city, especially the old city which is very charming. However, when we went there, it was a period of chaos in Tunisia and the city management was average.

#Driver around Tunisia, North Africa
The Bardo National Museum is considered the most famous "mosaic museum" in the world. There are nearly 40 exhibition halls in the museum, which display artworks from the prehistoric period, the Phoenician and Carthaginian period, the ancient Roman period, the establishment and spread of Christianity, and the Arab Islamic period. Among them, the mosaics of the ancient Roman period are absolutely among the best in the world in terms of quantity and quality. These mosaics reflect the pastoral life, natural scenery, fishing and hunting, sailing, sports competitions, dramas, songs and dances, funeral ceremonies, myths and religious stories of the time. The colors are coordinated and exquisite. Although they have a history of nearly 2,000 years, they are still as bright as new.
The Bardo Museum in Tunisia is the largest museum in Tunisia. It is located in the north of Tunis and is also one of the largest museums in North Africa. We first learned about the history of Tunisia from here.

Bourguiba Avenue is the most famous commercial street in Tunisia. The whole street is full of various shops and restaurants. Many tourists and locals will sit in the roadside cafes to enjoy a cup of coffee or a very leisurely afternoon. This is the representative of French life in Tunisia. You may as well take a walk.
Bourguiba Avenue in Tunisia is the largest commercial street in the country and is also known as the Champs-Elysees of Africa. On both sides of the street are coffee shops or boutiques of all sizes. You can enjoy a very comfortable afternoon here with a cup of coffee and dessert.

Roman Baths.
This is a historic site where you can get a glimpse of life at that time.
You can visit multiple places with one ticket, so take a day to visit.
The Roman Baths in Tunisia are located in the ruins of the famous ancient city of Ghataqi. It is the site of a public bath from the Roman period more than 2,000 years ago. Many of the designs here are very similar to the current bathrooms. I really have to admire the wisdom of the ancients.

The oldest mosque in Tunis and whether you are muslim or not this a place that should be visited.
The building is beautiful. The courtyard is impressive and the tower looks imposing.
When not being used for prayer the door to the mosque is open but with an attendant in charge so that tourists cannot just wander in. But if you are pleasant to him and offer a donation he will use your camera to take some photos inside.
This is a very historical building and really worth a visit

This time the church is located in the main urban area of Tunis, and the street next to it is also a very busy shopping street. The church has a very tall and symmetrical structure, and you can visit it inside. You can also see traces of ancient Rome in this place. The whole trip to Tunisia is very good.
Like the Notre-Dame church in Tunis, this is a great place! I love the architecture and the colors of the stained glass. In fact, it looks like the Notre-Dame church in Tunis. It's very peaceful inside. Even though they are sometimes closed to the public, don't miss to take a look outside. On the way to the Medina or downtown Tunis.
