Tunis

Tourbet el-Bey
Splendid 18th-century mausoleum, the largest in Tunis, where more than 160 Husaynid princes, ministers and their families are buried. The sumptuous interior is decorated with tiles, marble and carved plasterwork. The motif of the eight-pointed star represents the doors of paradise.

Rue Tourbet el-Bey, Medina

Belvedere Park
Laid out by the French, this once exclusive park with a lake, a small zoo, an elegant 18th-century pavilion and a cafe-terrace is now a popular place for Tunisians to escape the summer heat and noise of the city.

Avenue Taieb Mehiri, New Town
