An oasis in southern Tunisia is a lush, green haven amidst the arid desert, characterized by date palms, irrigated crops, natural water springs, pools, and sometimes waterfalls. These places offer a striking contrast to the surrounding dunes and often contain hot springs, as in Ksar Ghilane. Oases, such as those in Tozeur and Chebika, are centers of social, economic, and cultural life, producing famous dates like Deglet Nour and serving as starting points for desert excursions.

"The Pearl of the Sahel" (La Perle du Sahel) is the nickname of the city of Sousse, one of the oldest and most important cities in Tunisia. This nickname comes from its strategic location, its rich cultural heritage, its UNESCO-listed Medina, its vital port, and its position on the coast.

Amphitheatre of El Jem
The impressive ruins of the largest colosseum in North Africa, a huge amphitheatre which could hold up to 35,000 spectators, are found in the small village of El Jem. This 3rd-century monument illustrates the grandeur and extent of Imperial Rome.

Dougga / Thugga
Before the Roman annexation of Numidia, the town of Thugga, built on an elevated site overlooking a fertile plain, was the capital of an important Libyco-Punic state. It flourished under Roman and Byzantine rule, but declined in the Islamic period. The impressive ruins that are visible today give some idea of the resources of a small Roman town on the fringes of the empire.

Archaeological Site of Carthage
Carthage was founded in the 9th century B.C. on the Gulf of Tunis. From the 6th century onwards, it developed into a great trading empire covering much of the Mediterranean and was home to a brilliant civilization. In the course of the long Punic wars, Carthage occupied territories belonging to Rome, which finally destroyed its rival in 146 B.C. A second – Roman – Carthage was then established on the ruins of the first.
