A pleasant tourist city, Sousse is also industrial, rural and university. Its medina, located on the slope of a hill, stages the geometry of its white houses facing the port and the sea. The round minaret depended on a ribat, milestone of a chain of fortified monasteries of the ninth century. On the opposite side, a double enclosure and a dungeon mark the casbah. Sousse is a place of cultural influence from where one can escape for half a day to Kairouan or El Jem. Sousse also has beautiful beaches and a lively seaside day and night. This has favored its important tourist development, but its medina and its monuments ensure a resolutely typical character. It is a city that deserves a detour with its large square that clashes with the walls of the mosque, the ribat and the medina, its varied and lively alleys, its extraordinary archaeological museum, its beautiful sandy beaches 5 minutes from the center and its walks on the cornice. It is a vibrant city that has retained the soul of Tunisia.
