Read moreIt is slightly below the museum, on the southern slope of the hill of Byrsa, and it appears as it was after the destruction of the city by the Romans. Built at the time of Hannibal, its streets intersect at right angles. From the four viewpoints located on the large Roman foundation walls, one can better appreciate the plans of the different housing units. The district of Byrsa was destroyed and burned down, along with the entire city, in 146 BC.
