in the depths of the medina

Lost in the medina of Tunis, where you can find anything Tunisian you may fancy, but finding the best price takes some haggling and befriending. We paid a bit too much for a few things but then met a buddy who got us in with the locals and we picked up some beautifull exotic gifts.

The remains of the Roman baths at Carthage. Huge granite columns once towered along the bay side of this grandiose bath house.

Viva tunisia, flags flying in the medina.

The characteristic town-scape of Sidi Bou Said, the hillside, seaside suburb tourist hub, much less heavily trafficed in the winter. Nice place for a tea and a shisha.
