Culture

Carthage’s successor, Tunisia is an ancient civilisation, enriched by different cultures through the ages. By visiting the country and its museums you can admire the prolific creativity of Roman and African mosaic artists, the powerful beauty of the El Djem Amphitheatre and the Great Mosque of Kairouan, the delicate elegance of the Capitol in Dougga or the palaces in Tunis, the moving simplicity of Djerba’s architecture… You can find out about the Berber traditions that still continue today, lifestyles that have adapted to the most hostile of environments and the incredible variety of customs and crafts. You can also familiarise yourself with a modern culture with its arms outstretched to the rest of the world.
