#Tunis #Bardo # Tunisia Visit of the capital city of #Tunis in #Tunisia. Tunis has been known since antiquity. The Greek writer Polybius, in the 2nd century B.C. describes Τύνης as a city 26 stadiums away from Carthage, which is about 5 kilometers. We visit the LaFayette district of Tunis. It is there that we find the Belvedere Park which is the largest park in the city and which was laid out at the end of the 19th century. Conceived by Joseph Laforcade, chief gardener of the city of Paris, this English style park includes a zoo. The Habib-Bourguiba Avenue, former avenue de la Marine, is the main artery of Tunis, it is also called by the inhabitants the Champs Elysees, for its resemblance to its French counterpart. The area was also called il-bled Es-Sourri during the French occupation. The large avenue extends to the Porte de France, the entrance to the souks. There are many business places and restaurants. Do not miss the large equestrian statue of Habib Bourguiba father of the nation. True center of the capital, the avenue abounds in historical buildings including the Tunis Theater characteristic of the last period of the Art Deco style. Historic heart of Tunis, the Medina is registered since 1979 in the world heritage of UNESCO. Founded in 698 around the initial nucleus of the Zitouna mosque, it developed its urban fabric throughout the Middle Ages, dividing into a main medina and two suburbs to the north (Bab Souika) and south (Bab El Jazira). Tourists come from all over the world to discover its Souk, but the complex has an impressive number of historic buildings including the Zitouna Mosque. Apparently it has been an ancient place of prayer where an olive tree was located, hence the name of the mosque built around 704. Not far, we can also admire the minaret of the Hammouda-Pasha mosque. Tunisians like to walk through the many streets and alleys of the Medina. A walk in the heart of the millenary history of Tunisia. The existence of Tunis is attested as early as the 4th century BC. Destroyed according to Strabon during the 3rd Punic War, it would have been rebuilt before Carthage. It will be a bishopric then after the Arab conquest, it will be their naval base in the Western Mediterranean. And it will become the capital of a kingdom that extended from Tripoli to Fez under the Almohads. #Bardo Museum Anyone visiting #Tunisia should visit the #Bardo Museum in #Tunis which is the second most important museum on the African continent after the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. The richness of its collections is exceptional and retraces the thousand-year-old history of Tunisia through all the civilizations that have succeeded one another. People forget it, but Tunisia is very close to Sicily. This is the reason why Carthage quickly came into confrontation with the Roman Empire. Very quickly Latin Christianity will have its assises there. One finds besides in all the country several baptisteries since at the time one immersed the adults in water. Jews have also been present for centuries in Tunisia. In the Bardo museum, the mosaics of the Roman period are the most grandiose. There are dozens of them, as well as a multitude of statues and ritual objects. The collection of the museum counts on several rare pieces including a statue of the Mother Goddess, another of Demeter sitting on a throne, a leontocephalous statue called of Tanit and another of the god Ba'al Hammon. As for the mosaic collection, it is quite exceptional. In particular, the mosaic called "Lord Julius", that of Ulysses resisting the sirens, and the pavement representing two pugilists. There are also some baptismal vats including that discovered in Demna at Cape Bon, one of the most beautiful in the world. Allow a good half-day to tour the museum. Guides are available on site for those who would like more information on the collection.
