Tunisia is a hidden jewel of North Africa. The country is sprawled across sapphire coastlines, bustling cities, and towering sand dunes. Let’s take a look at four majestic sights of Tunisia that should be on every traveler’s bucket list.
Chebika
Chebika is a beautiful oasis of quaint waterfalls and sparkling streams in the Sahara desert. It was used as a film set in Star Wars episode IV and as a result feels strangely familiar.
Hammamet
This town was once a small fishing village, but it’s now one of the top tourist attractions in Tunisia. Its warm blue waters are perfect for water sports and the historic old town is a great example of Islamic architecture.
Sidi Bou Said
This quaint village is built on top of pearl white cliffs and affords tremendous views down on the shimmering sea below. Watch the glowing sunset from lovely white and blue painted houses and feel yourself at one with your environment.
Sousse
This ex-military port and world heritage site is located right on the Tunisian coastline. Its soft sandy beaches and ancient architecture make it one of the most popular tourist destinations. It’s also home to the Great Mosque—a great example of Islamic religious art.
