Tunis: the historical and cultural heart of Tunisia
Tunis, the capital of the Republic of Tunisia, is located on the southern shore of the Gulf of Tunis in the northern Mediterranean and is the political, economic, cultural and transportation center of the country. This ancient city with more than 3,000 years of history, a blend of Arab, Berber and Mediterranean civilization, the old town medina was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1981, its winding alleys, traditional bazaars and the Blue Mosque tells the past glory. The neighboring ruins of Carthage bear the imprint of the civilizations of the ancient Roman and Carthaginian empires. As an important tourist hub in North Africa, Tunis is known for its pleasant climate, multiculturalism (French colonial architecture alongside Arabian traditions), handicrafts and gastronomy, and as a vibrant representative of a modern city and a starting point for exploring Tunisia's history and culture.
