Tunisia

Unjustly overlooked by travelers en route to Tunisia''s celebrated seaside resorts, the nation''s capital certainly deserves more than a just a quick glance outside the shuttle bus window. The city lives and breathes history, and has a lot to offer in the way of art and culture. Ancient Roman ruins, palpable traces of French colonial presence and an Oriental flair well-preserved in the Medina all constitute major elements of Tunis'' eclectic charm.
