This amazing complex brings together a museum, a medina of the Thousand and A Nights and the Dar Zamen with its sounds and sounds, a gallery that revives scenes of Tunisian life, contemporary or old, festive or daily. The Thousand and One Nights in the Medina show the Diamond Valley, Ali Baba and the forty thieves. You then moved to an extraordinary world, from the belly of the cobra to the medina of Baghdad, frightening caves in the palace of the Sultan. We emerge dazzled, a little lost after being dragged back in childhood and had a full eye. The period costumes worn by the museum's staff bring a further note of truth to these reconstructions, which go through Bedouin tents and traditional Turkish cuisine. For more charm and excitement, it is advisable to visit the museum at night. In the lobby there is a small courtyard and a nice café. In another cafe, on the floor overlooking the site, you can enjoy a mint tea in a fairytale setting. Mr. Cheraït (Maire Mayor) recently opened a new space by condemning the museum's restaurant. The sound and light Show Dar Zamen (entrance 6 DT) reproduces the period dwellings of the zone and the Ksours De, it evokes 3 000 years of country history, in the Disney way!

Boubacar is the sole copyist of Timbuktu. In his home, he devotes himself to the ink of the poems and excerpts of Arabic manuscripts dating from the th century, such as the famous «Wind comes from the north, gold comes from the south, money comes from the white country, but wisdom comes from Timbuktu». The tour of the workshop is very interesting, the purchase in no way mandatory, and the price displayed on each copy.

In the centre of the city centre, men do the work of iron, leather, embroidery, weaving. Many objects are there. But prices are often too high.

Association created to promote the creative scene in Alexandria and support its young artists by offering a space for contemporary visual and performing arts. It is particularly keen to encourage the emergence of the underground art scene, which, like that of Beirut, is particularly fertile. Performances, workshops, exhibitions and a wide variety of events: its interactive program is aimed at a broad public. It's a place of culture, of cultures; a lively place, a vibrant place... A good place to meet Egyptian youth.

Daly, who is at the origin of this meeting place, is a painter. The décor is original: at the Café des Arts, pallets and colored tires serve as tables. Daly exhibits some of his works and organizes musical evenings and philosophical debates. A recent and rare initiative for the city of Nouadhibou. You can also order brochettes, grilled chicken, kebabs, hamburgers, for 200 to 350 MRU. A place to see, to try, for its variety, and to support Daly, whose namesake makes you smile in the middle of Mauritania.
