Tunis Souks

The Souks of Tunis are a series of markets located in the old city of Tunis, Tunisia. The souks were built in the 13th century, near the Al-Zaytuna Mosque, and are organized in several streets and alleys. Each souk has its own unique specialties. Visitors can explore the various souks, including Souk El Attarine, which sells fragrances and perfumes, Souk El Berka, which was once a slave market and now sells jewelry, and Souk Ech-Chaouachine, which specializes in traditional Tunisian hats. The souks offer a fascinating glimpse into the city's rich history and culture, with many historic buildings, mosques, and madrassas to discover. The narrow streets and alleyways of the medina are also home to many artisans' workshops, tea shops, and restaurants, making it a great place to experience the local cuisine and hospitality
