Tunis is a wondering city and a necessary stopover for any traveler in North Africa. Tunis is simultaneously Arabic, African and a little French and European.

The city itself is not very big, counting 1,5 millions of inhabitants. Nevertheless in the urban agglomeration of Tunis live almost 4 millions people, which is pretty impressive and means almost a half of the country’s population. Tunis has a harbor in the beautiful Bay of Tunis. Not far from Tunis is the lake of Tunis, and nearby flow also the two mainly rivers of the country. Thus, the huge surface of the urban agglomeration is used in some places for agriculture ( you have good opportunities everywhere to taste the local wines and olives). Amazing, but completely amazing for a city of these dimensions which is surrounded by water, Tunis has no beaches! Don’t ask why, it is simply a fact, and if you wanna lie in the sun you can simply go to Djerba, which is not so far.
