Old part of the city. The word "medina" in modern Arabic simply means "city".
Almost every Muslim country has its own medina.
The Medina of Sousse is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. All of it is surrounded by a wall with a length of more than 2 km. At the same time, the walls are very thick and high - about 10 m. Inside the Medina is the Kasbah fortress, and next to it is the mosque-fortress Ribat. These structures were built about 1200 years ago.
Medina lives "its own" life...There are state food stores, there is a clothing market.
In addition, each door is unique))) Therefore, in order not to get lost, focus on the doors...
It is worth being afraid of pickpockets, as well as intrusive sellers.
