A fascinating history and old town visibly marked by invasions by Phoenicians (from Carthage, located nearby), Berbers, Roman, Ottomans, the French, among others, add to the charm of this very exotic place. Sights include palaces, mosques, mausoleums, and fascinating museums. This is a vibrant city worth visiting.
