Discover Kairouan, Tunisia

The UNESCO World Heritage town of Kairouan in Tunisia used to be one of the greatest centres of Islamic scholarship and Quranic learning between the ninth and eleventh centuries. The city has a striking whitewashed medina with several splendid mosques, including the Great Mosque of Kariouan. Your Tunisian stay is somewhat lacking if you do not visit the oldest and most historically significant Islamic structure in North Africa built in 670 AD. Also called Uqba bin Nafei mosque, in reference to the Muslim conqueror of the Maghreb who built it, this worldwide architectural masterpiece is considered the ancestor of all the mosques in the Western Islamic world. Majestic in its architecture, the mosque is spread over 9,000 square metres. It displays a spacious, marble-paved courtyard flanked by ancient columns marching into the distance, an impressive square minaret, and a very tranquil prayer hall.
