Sidi Bou Said

Sidi Bou Said

4.7/5
142 reviews
Sidi Bou Said is located in the suburbs of Tunis, the capital of Tunisia, and is perched on a cliff overlooking the Gulf of Tunis, making it one of the representative coastal towns in Tunisia. It is famous for its blue and white architecture, winding cobblestone streets, and charming Mediterranean scenery. From a distance, the pristine white houses spread out in layers along the hillside, with blue doors and windows echoing the deep blue sea in the distance, creating a tranquil and beautiful Mediterranean landscape. Most of the houses in the town feature white walls, paired with blue doors and windows and wrought-iron decorations, forming a unique architectural style. Walking up the hillside, you can see the open bay and the vast blue sea. Especially in the evening, as the sun slowly sets into the Gulf of Tunis, the golden afterglow spills over the white walls and blue windows, casting a warm glow over the entire town and making the scenery particularly enchanting.Sidi Bou Said · 2.4 km from La Marsa

Medina of Tunis is located in the heart of Tunis, the capital of Tunisia. Developed over a long period, it has gradually formed a compact urban layout with a maze of streets, where ancient mosques, traditional residences, and bustling markets together create a unique urban landscape. Strolling through it feels like stepping back in time, allowing you to experience the deep historical heritage and vibrant local life of Tunisia. Narrow streets, quaint stone walls, exquisite doors and windows, and courtyards hidden deep within the buildings all showcase the lifestyle of a traditional Arab city.Medina de Tunis · 16.4 km from La Marsa

In the 9th century AD, the Kairouan area suffered severe water shortages. The drought and lack of rain at the time, coupled with the fact that the area was below sea level, made it extremely difficult to use water. The locals built 15 cisterns for drinking water. Only two of the imprints left by the Agrabit dynasty are now left for tourists to visit. Standing on the high platform where he specialized in cultivation, he could see the wisdom of Kairouwan at a glance. The small pool is used to store the water drained from the mountain. After the sand and gravel are filtered out through the filter arch with a certain height, it flows into the large pool. At this time, the water can basically be used for production and life, and people will take water along the rectangular embankment. It is cooler here in summer nights, and many people will relax here to enjoy the coolness.Tunisia · Kairouan

Known for its cobbled streets and blue-and-white houses, Sidi Bou Said is a charming town on a promontory overlooking the Mediterranean, with al fresco cafes, Tunisian eateries, and small art galleries. Early-20th-century Ennejma Ezzahra Palace features arches, ornate stucco, and patterned tilework, while Dar El Annabi is a historic house with wax figures in traditional costume.

Bourguiba Avenue is an important tourist street in Tunisia. The block is also the living area for local people. There are many specialty shops and food stores. The tourist shops on both sides of the street are also quite good. You can see a lot of good business atmosphere.

The Medina of Tunis, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is a maze of narrow alleys. I visited on a rainy day, and the combination of the old cityscape and the overcast sky created a beautifully nostalgic atmosphere.

The Agrabit Reservoir in Kairouan is an important water source in Tunisia. The design here is very characteristic of the local area. One of the large pools is covered with sheepskin and camel skin to collect rainwater, which then flows into the large pool for sedimentation. This is an important source of purified water. It is really very imaginative and worth a visit.
