Médina (Tunis, Tunisia)

The Medina, located in the heart of Tunis has been a UNESCO World Heritage site since 1979. Founded in 698 around the Zitouna Mosque, it contains about 700 monuments over 270 hectares, added to the 29 hectares covered by the Kasbah. The network of alleys and covered passages developed through the Middle-Ages and under the Hafsid dynasty becomes the capital of a powerful kingdom. Among the monuments visitors might find when touring the Medina are a number of mosques, the Zitouna being the main one, but also palaces like the Dar Bach Hamba or the Dar Ben Abdallah, both of which have been converted into museums. Several Medersas (schools for Koran studies), Zaouïas (religious complexes) and Tourbet (mausoleums) are also present, but it is the Souqs which attract the most foreign tourists. This crisscross of shops, boutiques and workshops, dating back for the most part to the 13th Century is organised along the different trades and professions. The trades considered most “noble” (i.e. they create no unpleasant smell or noise) are found nearest the heart of the Medina, around the mosque, whilst other Souqs viewed as more lowly are found progressively further away.
